Scripting Guide - SAS

Chapter 11
Display Trees
Create and Use Windows
Now comes the chance to do more than program. This chapter shows how to create things in windows and
interact with them. These sections discuss different types of display scripting:
• navigating displays to manipulate items in report windows
• creating display trees to build new windows with custom results or custom combinations of standard
results
Note: You can both create and use some display boxes, but you can only use other display boxes.
To see a list of all display boxes that you can create, select the JMP Help menu and then select Scripting
Index > Functions > Display.
To see a list of all display boxes that can be found in a display tree, select the JMP Help menu and then
select Scripting Index > Display Box. If a display box is in this list but not in Functions, then you can send
messages to it, but you cannot create it in a script. These display boxes are typically sub-boxes of other
display boxes.
For details about scripting 2- and 3-dimensional plots, see the chapters “Scripting Graphs” on page 391 and
“Three-Dimensional Scenes” on page 427.
