Anita_n — Wed, 18 Oct 2017 11:06:59 GMT

I need to plot a horizontal bar chart and will like to make certain labels bold, also with borders and background colors.

I have being struggling with this issue for a while please I need urgent help .

I have included a sample of my program for any one who wish to help

ods listing style=listing;
ods graphics/ width= 10in height=10.81in ;
goptions  gunit=pct rotate=landscape ftext= "Arial";
goptions htext=13pt htitle=15pt gsfname=cgrt1;
ods graphics on / reset=index imagename="test1";

data anno;
 length label $25;
 set test.exports;
 retain function 'text' xsys 'datavalue'  width 80   textweight 'bold' border 'true' linecolor 'lightblue'  fillcolor 'lightblue'  ;
 yc1=melde_grup ;
 label=melde_grup;
  if grup in ("Cars") then x1=-10;
  if grup in ("Electronics") then x1=8;
  if grup in ("Utensils") then x1=11;
  run;

title "my exports";
proc sgplot data=test.exports  sganno=anno pad=(bottom=5%); 
styleattrs datacolors=(gray green); 
yaxis grid type=discrete discreteorder=data; 
hbar type /response=reported group=area  groupdisplay=cluster   
                    barwidth=0.8 missing ; 
yaxis display=(nolabel) offsetmin=0.05 offsetmax=0.05;
xaxis label='exports in %' grid offsetmin=0.0 offsetmax=0.05;
keylegend / location=outside position=bottomleft across=1 title="" 
            exclude=(" ");
 run;

order	Type	reported	area	grup
1	Cars
2	Pegueot	100	your_company	Cars
3	Fiat	84,1	your_company	Cars
4	Nissan	92,6	your_company	Cars

This seems similar in nature to the Forest Plot example in this blog article. You can do some of this using the AxisTable with SAS 9.4 or later. Backgrounds may require some other solution.

Thanks a lot Sanjay for your support. When I use the yaxistable in sgplot, it displays the whole group as table on the yaxis.

That is not what I really want. When I use sganno it works but if I apply the same syntax for another procedure with different variable it doesn't . I don't really understand that because every is the same only the variable change.

Anyway if am able to solve that I will leave a post.

Thanks
