Getting the Properties of a Graphics Frame
There are several functions that are useful for getting properties of an existing graphics frame
H Size
V Size
X Origin
Returns the horizontal size of the graphics frame in pixels.
Returns the vertical size of the graphics frame in pixels.
Returns the distance from the left to right edge of the displaybox.
X Range
Y Origin
Y Range
Returns the x-value for the left edge of the graphics frame.
Returns the y-value for the bottom edge of the graphics frame.
Returns the distance from the bottom to top edges of a display box.
Examples:
The first line calculates the right edge, and the second line calculates the top edge.
Adding a Legend
rightEdge = X Origin() + X Range();
topEdge = Y Origin() + Y Range();
You can add a legend to a graph, using the Row Legend command. The following example uses the
Fitness.jmp sample data file, and sets colors and markers based on the Age column, and adds a legend to the
plot.
biv = Bivariate(Y(:Oxy), X(:Runtime)); //generate a scatterplot
Report(biv)[Frame Box(1)]
