Gchart Hbar : chart and stats display question

mnew — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 19:18:56 GMT

Greetings:

As a learning exercise, I'm trying to create a HBAR chart that shows the mean & sum of salary for each gender next to the bars... But I want bar lengths to reflect the frequency of gender (not sum or mean of salary).

Could not have both the salary based stats and gender-freq-driven bars. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Here is my code (yes the orion dataset from online Base training).
proc gchart data=orion.nonsales;
hbar gender /sumvar= salary freq mean sum;
format salary dollar12.;
where gender in ('F' 'M');
run;
quit;

If you want to have ultimate control over the text beside the bars, you'll probably want to pre-calculate that text, and then annotate it.
