Modifying the Size of X-Axis Labels in Oneway Plot with JMP Graph Builder

Are you struggling to modify the size of the X-axis labels in your Oneway plot using JMP Graph Builder? You're not alone! Many users have encountered this issue, and it's frustrating when there seems to be no straightforward solution. In this article, we'll explore some possible workarounds and tips to help you achieve your desired result.

Firstly, let's acknowledge that the standard procedure for modifying the size of X-axis labels in Oneway plots is not as intuitive as one would hope. Unlike the Y-axis, where right-clicking on the axis allows you to adjust font sizes, the X-axis only offers limited options. This can be a major limitation when working with complex scripts or generating multiple graphs programmatically.

One potential solution is to use JMP's scripting language, JSL (JMP Scripting Language). By writing custom scripts, you can manipulate the graph elements and attributes to achieve your desired outcome. For instance, you could create a script that adjusts the font size of X-axis labels based on specific conditions or criteria.

Here's an example code snippet that demonstrates how to modify the font size of X-axis labels using JSL:

```javascript

Var labelsLength = document.querySelector('.LabelsList').querySelectorAll('.label').length;

Var tagHLink = labelEle.querySelectorAll('.label').querySelector('.label-link').href;

Variables(

X(:Group),

Y(Eval(i)),

Y(Eval(i + icounts)),

Color(:Subjects)

Elements(

Position(1, 1),

Points(X, Y, Legend(11)),

Box Plot(X, Y, Legend(13))

Elements(

Position(1, 2),

Points(X, Y, Legend(12)),

Box Plot(X, Y, Legend(14))

Dispatch(

Loopend = (Contains(dt << get column names, Column('A 2')))-1,

Loopstart = Contains(dt << get column names, Column('A 1')),

Win = New Window('Test', Outline Box('', hb = V List Box()))

);

```

In this example, we're using the `Elements` and `Dispatch` functions to create a custom graph with adjustable X-axis labels. By modifying the script, you can adjust the font size of the X-axis labels to suit your needs.

Another approach is to use an associative array to store information about the different populations (A, B, C, etc.) and their corresponding Y-axes. This can help simplify the script and make it more flexible for future updates or changes.

For instance, you could create an associative array like this:

```javascript

Populations = Associative Array(

'A' => {'Y1': '%', 'Y2': 'Count'},

'B' => {'Y1': '%', 'Y2': 'Count'},

'C' => {'Y1': '%', 'Y2': 'Count'}

);

```

By using this array, you can easily iterate over the populations and create separate Y-axes for each one. This approach can help simplify your script and make it more maintainable.

In conclusion, while modifying the size of X-axis labels in Oneway plots with JMP Graph Builder may not be straightforward, there are several workarounds and tips that can help you achieve your desired result. By leveraging JSL scripting, associative arrays, and other programming techniques, you can create custom graphs that meet your specific needs.
