xaxis marks correlated with x-values

Jason2020 — Thu, 01 Jul 2021 14:06:08 GMT

Greetings,

I am using proc sgplot to model the relationship between bone level and follow up years in two treatment groups (A/B). The issue I have is that the tick marks of the x-axis are not spaced right. In other words, the 1 year and 6 years are spaced equally. I hope someone can show me how to space the marks so that they are correlated with the number of years. I included below a sample of my data, the program I used, and the resulting figure.

Thank you.

You x axis is discrete instead of linear. Add TYPE=linear to your x axis statement.

That was a simple solution. Thank you very much.
