tickvalueformat in SAS sgplot & proc template

Fred_Gavin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 03:04:28 GMT

Hi All,
As option of "tickvalueformat" in sgplot is only associated with SAS phase2, I cannot use that option in my sgplot.

What I wanna do is only to change the ticks on x-axis to bold.

As suggested, proc template can be used to change the style of the plot. However I am absolutely new to template language.

And using some codes found online to define my own style will overwrite the original plot: say "ods listing style = statistical/ boder=off;"

Could anyone here please give me some suggestion on this?

Thanks in advance.
Fred

If you can't get this working in sgplot (in your older version of SAS), perhaps using the traditional SAS/Graph "proc gplot" would be a work-around(?)...

axis1 minor=none label=(font="arial") value=(font="arial");
axis2 minor=none label=(font="arial") value=(font="arial/bold");

proc gplot data=sashelp.class;
plot height*weight / vaxis=axis1 haxis=axis2;
run;
