proc gbarline: legend?

Eva — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 09:20:41 GMT

Dear all,

I use a proc gbarline which is a really good thing. Now I'd like to have a legend for the bar and the plot - just to tell the user what the bars and what the plot displays. Putting legend=legend1 behind the sumvar unfortunately doesn't work. Does anybody know how to do this?

Best regards
Eva

Eva,
Show perhaps some code

symbol1 value=dot height=5 interpol=join color=red width=2;

proc gbarline data=work.mygraph;

format wert percent10.2
q_aggregat percent10.2;

by mybyfield;

bar mydate / sumvar = wert discrete
raxis=axis1 maxis=axis2
ref= 0.95
cref = orange;

plot / sumvar = q_aggregat
raxis=axis3;

axis1 label=none order=(0 to 1 by 0.1);
axis2 label=none;
axis3 label=none order=(0 to 1 by 0.1);

title "#byval(mybyfield)";

run;

Do you have any sample data you could provide, to go along with the sample code?

Here a tested result in 9.2.2
but Robert Allison woill surely present anything better
and perhaps resolving the appearance of mydate as tha name of the variable

Nicely done Andre!

Of course, since you've set everyone's expectations, I guess I now *have*
to try to provide a few small improvements 😉

proc gbarline data=work.mygraph;

axis1 label=none order=(0 to 1 by 0.2) minor=none offset=(0,0);

axis3 label=none order=(0 to 1 by 0.2) minor=none offset=(0,0);
legend1 position=(middle right) shape=symbol(1 cm, 0.2 cm)
label=none value=("quarterly");
legend2 position=(middle right) shape=bar(.15in,.15in)
label=none value=("sum of wert");
format wert q_aggregat percent10.0;
format mydate ddmmyy10.;
by mybyfield;
bar mydate / sumvar=wert discrete raxis=axis1 maxis=axis2 ref=0.95 lref=3 cref=orange legend=legend2;

Hello both of you,

thanx for your code. I tried it but unfortunately I don't get a legend.

I have SAS 9.1 and use the device activex. Maybe that's the reason I don't get a legend?

Best regards
Eva

GraphGuy — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:08:30 GMT

Ahh! - I was using v9.2, and device=gif (and also the default device in dms windows sas).

Re: proc gbarline: legend?

Eva — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:19:44 GMT

device=gif doesn't work either

Is there another way to have a legend?
