The Surface Category
Mosaic Plot Clicking the Mosaic Plot button when you have nominal or ordinal x and y values
produces a contingency table and a mosaic bar chart.
The Surface Category
The Surface category, shown in Figure A.8, corresponds with commands in the main menu that
produce multi-dimensional graphs, such as profilers and surface plots.

Surface Plot Clicking the Surface Plot button, or choosing Graph > Surface Plot, produces
plots with smooth, three-dimensional surfaces.
Profiler The report that results from clicking the Profiler button, or choosing Graph > Profiler,
produces a prediction profiler for the effect variables in a model, with one or more y variables. The
prediction profiler displays prediction traces for each x variable. A prediction trace is the predicted
response as one variable is changed while the others are held constant at the current values. If you
save the prediction equations for a model, you can access the prediction profiler for that data
table directly with Graph > Profiler without rerunning the model. You can also use this
command to create a Flash (.swf) version of the Profiler.
Contour Profiler The report that results from clicking the Contour Profiler button, or choosing
Graph > Contour Profiler, does interactive contour profiling. This is useful for optimizing
response surfaces graphically. This interactive plot lets you adjust both multiple responses and
multiple factors simultaneously and shows acceptable factor setting regions for response values
you specify. If you save the prediction equations for a model, Graph > Contour Profiler accesses
the contour profiler for that data table directly without rerunning the model.
The chapter “Standard Least Squares: Exploring the Prediction Equation” of JMP Statistics and
Graphics Guide covers the profiler and the contour profiler.
Mixture Profiler lets you profile models involving mixture experiments. It respects constrained
models and enables you to explore alternatives inside feasible design regions.
Custom Profiler Clicking the Custom Profiler button, or choosing Graph > Custom Profiler,
displays an interface for interacting with and optimizing a prediction formula.
