Graph Template Language: Get Rid of Tick Marks

hartwell — Thu, 31 Oct 2024 19:15:50 GMT

Is there a way to get rid of tick marks entirely in GTL? As part of my layout, I'm overlaying a scatter and a boxplot for my two different treatment groups. I don't want tickmarks at all, which I can do in proc sgplot with a display=(noticks) option, but I can't seem to find a similar option in GTL. Is there a way to get this done?

EXAMPLE CODE

layout overlay / xaxisopts=(label=("Change") tickvalueattrs=(size=0 color=white)) yaxisopts=(label=" " labelposition=top);

scatterplot y=CHG x= TRT / group=TRT groupdisplay = cluster clusterwidth=1  markerattrs=(size=5 symbol=circlefilled);

boxplot y=CHG x=TRT / group=TRT grouporder=data groupdisplay=cluster fillattrs=(transparency=0.6) boxwidth = 1;

endlayout;

Yes, there is. In SGPLOT and SGPANEL, axis displays options are subtractive (noticks, notable, etc). In GTL, they are additive -- you specify what you want. So, using the DISPLAY option on the XAXISOPTS/YAXISOPTS options, you would specify DISPLAY=(line label tickvalues) to display everything except the tick marks. Hope this helps!
