GRADAR line breaks in spoke labels

TomKari — Tue, 23 Jun 2020 16:04:05 GMT

Hi, all

I'd like to have the spoke labels line break on spaces. So in this example

proc gradar data=sashelp.shoes;
	chart product / sumvar=stores;
run;
quit;

I'd like "Men's Casual", "Men's Dress", "Sport Shoe", "Women's Casual", "Women's Dress" to be two lines.

All help appreciated!

Tom

Proc Gradar is fairly limited in the ability to customize it.

I don't think you can split the spoke labels onto two lines.

I just now tried encoding a '0d'x in the text, and that didn't work.

I also tried specifying the split= option on an axis statement, and that didn't work.

Hi, Rob

Thank you so much for looking into it. I had tried a few things, but I'm not super-skilled with graphics and ods, so I thought someone might have an idea.

I've got an interesting idea for a workaround...there are actually icons that represent each of the spoke subjects, so I may try removing the text and using ANNOTATE to place the icons in the right places. It'll be a good test of my trigonometry skills!

Best,

Tom
