Add Color Theme({"name", <flags>, {color}, <{position}>)
Description
Creates a custom color theme that you can apply to components such as markers, data table rows, and treemaps. Add the color theme to the JMP Preferences by including Add Color Theme(...) inside Preferences().
Returns
Null.
Arguments
name
The name of the color theme.
flags
An optional flag for the Continuous or Categorical color theme list and category of color.
Continuous, <Continuous>, Sequential
Continuous, <Continuous>, Diverging
Continuous, <Continuous>, Chromatic
Categorical, <Continuous>, Sequential
Categorical, <Continuous>, Diverging
Categorical, Qualitative
Categorical, <Continuous>, Chromatic
With the default JMP color themes, Sequential colors transition from left to right or right to left. Diverging colors are lighter in the middle. Chromatic colors consist of blocks or gradients of bright color. All categories except for Qualitative can be both continuous and categorical.
If you omit the flag, the color is shown in the Continuous, Sequential and Categorical, Sequential categories.
color
Lists of RGB values. These values define the blocks in categorical color themes and the gradients in continuous color themes. Each list of RGB values corresponds to a slider in the preferences Color Themes window.
position
An optional list of numbers between 0 and 1 with one position per color. Each position corresponds to a slider in the preferences Color Themes window. If you omit the position, the sliders are evenly spaced.
Examples
The following example creates a continuous color theme named Blue to Purple. The color is in the Diverging category. RGB values are defined in the four lists.
Add Color Theme(
{"Blue to Purple", {"Continuous", "Diverging"}, {{0, 0, 255},
{57, 108, 244}, "white", {128, 0, 100}}} );
Notes
Any style except for Qualitative can be Continuous and Categorical at the same time. For example, the Cool to Warm Diverging theme is in the Continuous and Categorical theme lists. In JMP, select Preferences > Graphs to see examples.
To delete a color theme, use Remove Color Theme(). See Remove Color Theme("Name"|{"Name", <flags>, {color, ...}, <{position, ...}>}>).
Arc(x1, y1, x2, y2, startangle, endangle)
Description

Returns
Null.
Arguments
pixellength
(Optional) Specifies the length of the arrowhead in pixels.
{x1, y1}, {x2, y2}
Two lists of two numbers that each specify a point in the graph.
Notes
The two points can also be enclosed in square brackets: Arrow(<pixellength>, [x1, x2], [y1, y2]).
Back Color("name")
Description
Sets the color used for filling the graph’s background.
Returns
Null.
Argument
name
A quoted color name or a color index (such as "red" or "3" for the color red).

Returns
A matrix.
Arguments
path
A string that contains the path specification.
Circle({x, y}, radius|PixelRadius(n), <...>, <"fill">)
Description
Draws a circle centered at {x, y} with the specified radius.
Returns
Null.
Arguments
{x, y}
A number that describes a point in the graph
radius
A number that describes the length of the circle’s radius in relation to the vertical axis. If the vertical axis is resized, the circle is also resized.
PixelRadius(n)
A number that describes the length of the circle’s radius in pixels. If the vertical axis is resized, the circle is not resized.
"fill"
Optional string. Indicates that all circles defined in the function are filled with the current fill color. If "fill" is omitted, the circle is empty.
Note
The center point and the radius can be placed in any order. You can also add additional center point and radius arguments and draw more than one circle in one statement. One point and several radii results in a bull’s-eye. Adding another point still draws all previous circles, and then adds an additional circle with the last radius specified. This means that this code:
graphbox(circle({20, 30}, 5, {50, 50}, 15))
results in three circles, not two. First, a circle with radius 5 is drawn at 20, 30. Second, a circle with radius 5 is drawn at 50, 50. Third, a circle with radius 15 is drawn at 50, 50.
