PROC SGPLOT VBAR DATALABEL mean FORMAT issue

serjio — Fri, 14 Feb 2020 20:35:15 GMT

Hello everyone,,

we are trying to use sgplot varbar ,

option: vbar x / response =y stat=mean datalabel ;

to put mean data above each bar. however, we found we have no way to format datalabel.

Is there a way to format datalabel to avoid long tail of the mean?

We tried to format response Y. But it seems sgplot gave a mean based on formatted Y, lacking original precision.

ie. after formating Y, MEAN=2.12, but using the real numbers Mean=2.13, how we solve this?

hard to pass QC.

ANY IDEA HOW TO SOLVE THIS?

Thank you!

Do you have a reproducible working example we can work with to help you get what you want?

One option is to calculate the values separately and then use a TEXT statement to overlay the values onto the graph.
