Proc SGPLOT: different on Band and Series

sueshaw — Sun, 01 Mar 2020 19:53:49 GMT

I am new to SGPLOT, thank for help.

I want to output a band with (ll uu)xval. but the following statements produced different result...

1) band x=val lower=ll upper=uu / fill outline transparency=0.3;

2) series x=val y=ll /lineattrs=(pattern=dash color=black) ;
series x=val y=uu /lineattrs=(pattern=dash color=black);

I also want to add symbol at val*estimate, and draw a line with lower and upper bar on some of x values

series x=val2 y=estimate2 /group=dose grouporder=data lineattrs=(pattern=solid) markers datalabel=xlab;
scatter x=val2 y=estimate2/group=dose grouporder=data yerrorupper=uu2 yerrorlower=ll2 ;

What different result? Show us.

What happened when you tried? Show us.

There does seem to be an issue to be investigated. However, I can give you a workaround:

proc sgplot data=resp_1 noautolegend; 
    series x=val y=ll / transparency=1;
    band x=val lower=ll upper=uu / fill outline transparency=0.3 x2axis;
    series x=val2 y=estimate2 /group=dose grouporder=data lineattrs=(pattern=solid) markers datalabel=xlab; 
    scatter x=val2 y=estimate2/group=dose grouporder=data yerrorupper=uu2 yerrorlower=ll2 ;
    x2axis display=none;
    xaxis label="xlab" display=none;
    yaxis label="ylab" ;   
 run;

Hope this helps!

A colleague here at work spotted the issue -- The X2AXIS option on the BAND plot (sorry I missed that). Having the BAND on a different xaxis from the scatter plot causes your misalignment because the two axes will have different ranges (your band has a longer range than you scatter plot). Just remove that option, and you should be fine.

Thanks!

Thanks for your help.

I need to have x2axis display=none; because I dont want to show value on x axis.

instead, I only want want to show some values (val2).

I used your recommendation, and problem solved.

I added

1) series x=val y=ll/transparency=1

2) series x=val y=uu/transparency=1;

please find my final output attached.

note: I used sganno to add label to x axis, that's other problems that I need to work on....

thank you.
