Latest Prism Releases
A whole new set of color schemes and introducing the Prism Cloud Early Access Program: creating the perfect visualization is important! You've already gone through all the work of generating and analyzing your data, the last thing you want is an uninteresting looking graph. Adding a bit of color is always a great way to highlight your work, so we've added nine new built-in color schemes to choose from to get the look of your graph just the way you want it.
Prism 9.5.0 also introduces the Prism Cloud Early Access program, allowing you to sign up to test the newest, easiest way to view, share, and collaborate on your Prism work with other members of your team (even if they don't use Prism!).
Introducing major improvements to Pairwise Comparisons (Stars on Graph): the pairwise comparisons (automatic stars on graph) feature now supports the Multiple t tests (and nonparametric tests) analysis. Additionally, numerous options for customizing the appearance of the pairwise comparisons on the graph have been introduced, including:
- P value prefixes. Choose from the default "P = " or "p = " prefixes or add your own
- Improved bracket style options. Choosing between the three different visual styles is now much clearer
- Separate controls for text and asterisk size. Make your text bigger, make your asterisks smaller, customize as much as you like
- Controls for specifying the distance between the text/asterisk and the line/bracket.
And many more improvements from earlier versions of Prism!
Introducing Cox Proportional Hazards Regression: perform survival analysis while including any number of continuous or categorical predictor variables. Other new features include:
- New Welcome Dialog pages to help you get started. Watch videos in Prism Academy or read through selections from the Prism guides
- New and updated keyboard shortcuts to improve your workflow efficiency
- Support for Windows 11 and macOS 12 Monterey
- And many more enhancements
This release introduces a variety of improvements:
- Searchable analyses in the Analyze Data dialog for faster access
- Graphs with improved snapping behavior of axis titles
- Graph Portfolio with new color schemes and other improvements
