Customizing JMP Journals
The reports in the journal window look like the live analysis, but they are disconnected from the data,
and analysis commands are no longer available. However, you can still customize the appearance of the
journal just as you would do with a live analysis. When a JMP journal is open, you can:
• Print the contents of the journal window by selecting File > Print.
• Add notes to the end of the journal by double-clicking the open area at the bottom.
• Add file references, hyperlinks, and more. See “Creating Journals,” p. 38, for details.
• Click the disclosure buttons ( on Windows/Linux and on the Macintosh) to open and
close report outline levels.
• Resize plots and graphs. (See “Resizing Plots and Graphs,” p. 195.)
• Select and move any element of the report by copying and pasting or dragging and dropping.
• Right-click (hold the CONTROL key and click on Macintosh) plots and graphs and assign
markers, change marker size, change background color, and more.
• Tailor plot axes with the Axis Specification window or by dragging them. (See “Customizing Axes
and Axis Labels,” p. 200.)
• Select and delete any report element.
• Use the annotate tool and other draw tools. (See “Adding Elements to a Report,” p. 211.)
• Copy or drag individual graphs and text reports from a JMP analysis window and paste or drop
them in a journal window.
• Copy or drag text and pictures from other applications and paste or drop them in a graph or at the
end of a journal window. (See “Adding Graphics (Windows and Macintosh Only),” p. 216.)
• Rerun an analysis from the journal window by clicking the red triangle icon and selecting Rerun in
new window.
Saving Using the Layout Command
You can edit or manipulate the report before you save, enabling you to combine several reports into one
or rearrange the report elements. You do this by selecting Edit > Layout. Using this command is
different from using the Edit > Journal command because the Layout command provides additional
options that let you ungroup parts of a report and restructure it to best fit your needs.
To create a layout:
1 Select Edit > Layout. The report window is duplicated in a separate window titled Layout.
