Overview of the JMP Starter Window
Overview of the JMP Starter Window
When JMP opens, the JMP Starter appears behind the Tip of the Day window. The JMP Starter gives
alternative access to most commands found on the main menu or on toolbars. You can close the JMP
Starter if you want; it is not required for running JMP.
To open and close the JMP Starter, select View > JMP Starter on Windows and Linux or Window >
JMP Starter under Macintosh.
The JMP Starter categories are organized in a way similar to the main menu, as illustrated in
Figure A.1. The four categories that follow the File category correspond with options available under
the Analyze menu. They lead you step by step from your data to an appropriate analysis. The next four
categories correspond with the Graph menu. The next two correspond with the DOE and Tables
menu.

The File Category
The JMP Starter first appears with the File category showing, as in Figure A.2. Most commands in the
File category correspond to File menu commands on the main menu bar.
The commands in the File category open JMP data tables or other types of JMP windows, which is
often what you need to do first.
