5 Data Properties
Assigning Colors or Markers to Rows According to Column Values
You can assign a different color or marker to each row in your data table based on the values found in a
particular column. For example, JMP will give all rows whose value in the column Sex is F a red square
marker and M a green plus marker. These colors and markers will replace the default black dot in plots
and will appear next to its row number in the data grid.
1 Select Color or Mark by Column from the Rows menu. (See Figure 5.6.)
