Changing Report Options
Journal Window When you close a report, JMP saves it to a journal window. For information
about journals, see “Importing Data,” p. 13, and “Saving Using the Journal Command,” p. 116.
Log Window When you close a report, JMP writes it to the log window. For information about
log windows, see “Saving a Log Window,” p. 128.
For details about saving JMP reports, see “Saving Reports,” p. 114.
Laser Pointer Options
JMP has a built-in laser pointer that enables you to visually emphasize parts of a report. It is off by
default. To turn it on:
1 Select File > Preferences (Windows/Linux) or JMP > Preferences (Macintosh).
2 Click the Reports category.
3 From the Laser pointer menu, select to turn it off, or select the color you want the laser pointer to
use.
10 Personalizing JMP
To use the laser pointer, click and drag anywhere on a report where the cursor is a left-pointing arrow.
The colored line of the laser pointer persists until you release the mouse button.
Marker Drawing Speed Threshold
When JMP refreshes a report window, it can draw markers on a plot at two different speeds: normal
and fast. If JMP is in normal drawing mode and the number of markers in a graph are more than the
specified threshold number, JMP automatically switches to fast mode.
To change the threshold number:
1 Select File > Preferences (Windows/Linux) or JMP > Preferences (Macintosh).
