ODS graphics gtl : grid on top of barchart

mathias — Fri, 07 Jun 2013 13:52:37 GMT

Hi,

I can't find the option to have the gridlines over my bars,

not under but on top of them.

I use sgrender with gtl like this :



* style template;
proc template;
  define style styles.alertlevels;
  parent=wivisp_sasstyle;


  style GraphColors from GraphColors /
  'gdata1' = CXD6E1F1
  'gdata2' = CXDEBEAD
  'gdata3' = CXE59C69
  'gdata4' = CXED7925
  ;


  class graphgridlines  / contrastcolor=colors('wivisp3') color=red ;
  end;
run;


* graph template;
proc template;
  title;footnote;
  define statgraph ALbarchart;
  dynamic latin source;
  begingraph / border=false;
  entrytitle "Early warning index";
  entrytitle latin;
  entryfootnote "© WIV-ISP – Data Source:" source;
  layout overlay /
  yaxisopts=(label='Cases / week'
  griddisplay=on
  display=(label tickvalues))
  xaxisopts=(label='week'
  griddisplay=off
  display=(label tickvalues ticks));


  barchart x=Date y=Cases /
  group=AlertLevel
  index=index
  barwidth=.8
  name='zut'
  outlineattrs=(thickness=0 color=white)
  datatransparency=0
  legendlabel='Alert Level'
  grouporder=ascending;
  discretelegend 'zut'/
  border=false
  title='Alert Level';
  endlayout;
  endgraph;
  end;
run;

You might want to try using the REFERENCELINE statement.

There is no option in GTL to place grid lines on top of the plots. Grids always go behind the plots.

But, you have two other ways to do this. You can make the bar chart a bit transparent. Or, instead of turning on gridlines, draw reference lines at each major tick value on the appropriate axis. You can use LINEATTRS=GRAPHGRIDS to get the same visual properties.
