Really Need Assistance With Moving a Map Label in SAS EG 6.1.

10134458 — Wed, 24 May 2017 17:27:33 GMT

Hello I received help on this topic a while ago and my map is almost there. The issue is that i cannot move the hospital number on the map. I've tried everything under the sun, but I just cannot get the number moved for the counties where the label does not quite go in the middle. Take Erie county for instance. I am able to reposition Erie, but cannot move the 1. I'm hopping i am making some sense here. I'm also hoping there is someone who can help me move this darn number. I have attached the code with the output. Thank you everyone.

Re: Really Need Assistance With Moving a Map Label in SAS EG 6.1.

ballardw — Wed, 24 May 2017 18:18:14 GMT

Most of the code you posted is not needed. The key bit will be in this data step:

data work.combinedanno;
   set 
      work.nameanno (in=Name)
	work.Hospanno (in=Hosp) ;
   if Name then position = '2';

   Else if Hosp then position = '5';
  	if county=123 then position = 'F';
	if county=43 then position = '9';
	if county=143 then position = 'E';

   /* this is where you could put if statements to adjust
      the x and or y coordinates to display name or value
   */
run;

You will need to examine the coordinate from you map of the counties or hospitals that you do not like.

Then look them up in the above data set. You then conditional change either the x, the y or both coordinates.

Suppose County x label has a coordinate of x= -0.027 and y= -0.035 (which since the center of the map is usually (0,0) ) and I want to move that label a little bit to the left (negative) and up (positive) I would add something like:

If County = xxx then do;

x= -0.033; ( or use x = x -0.006;)

y= -0.03; (or use y = y + 0.005;)

end;

Then rerun the data step making that annotate and retry the map. It may take a little while to get a feel for how much to change things.

Note that the POSITION indicator is in relation to an (x,y) map point.

If you have a number of adjustments then Select /when may make the code easier to follow:

Select (County);

when (xxx) do; x= x - 0.006; y= y+ 0.005; end;

when (yyy) do; x= x + 0.01 ; y= y- 0.01; end;

/* repeat for each county that needs a tweek*/

otherwise; /* do nothing for the ones with no change desired*/

end;

Note I have a county label data set that I have manually set this way for pretty much every county as almost none of ours are rectangular. I have that set in a permanent library and bring it out when I need to match a data value for display.

And for school districts as well as multi-county adminstrative regions.
