New Formula Editor
This is one of a series of posts highlighting new features available in version 13 of JMP.
The formula editor has had a big revamp. If you liked the old editor, don’t worry, it works the same way, but it has been re-designed to utilise screen space more efficiently and enhance the workflow.
Namespaces with Include Files
When I write complex JSL applications I’ve tended to use named namespaces so that they are easy to consistently reference across include files. But this has some limitations.
