The Data Filter

The Data Filter in JMP provides a variety of ways to identify subsets of data. You can interactively select complex subsets of data, hide these subsets in plots, or exclude them from analyses.

1. Select Rows > Data Filter.

Tip: In addition to the main Data Filter, you can also launch a local Data Filter within a platform report. Click the Local Data Filter icon from the Report toolbar, or select Local Data Filter from the red triangle menu in a report. See Local Data Filters in Reports for more information.

2. Select the columns that you want to use as filters, and then click Add .

Notes:

• To restore your current row states when the Data Filter window is closed, select the Save and restore current row states option.

• If you have a long list of columns, you can sort, show, hide, or search for columns in the list. Use the options in the Add Filter Columns red triangle menu.

• By default, the Data Filter window is attached to the data table. You can detach it temporarily or permanently:

– Detach it temporarily by deselecting the Use Floating Window option from the Data Filter red triangle menu.

– Detach it permanently by selecting File > Preferences > Data Filter and deselecting Use Floating Window.
