Italicize one letter of axis label

fastb — Mon, 05 Dec 2016 20:42:25 GMT

I am adding an axis label to a panel of plots created using layout lattice.

The axis label needs to read "Coefficient (I2)" with the I italicized and the 2 superscript.

I am able to superscript the 2 using the following code, but I can't seem to get the I italicized. I am using SAS 9.3.

ENTRY 'Coefficient (I(*ESC*){unicode "00B2"x})'

You can use a LABEL option on XAXISOPTS as shown below with SGPLOT. This will also work for ENTRY.

ods escapechar '~';
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
vbar age;
xaxis label="Coefficient (i ~{unicode '00B2'x} )" labelattrs=(style=italic);
run;
