How to align contents of column to the right

dtchoi86 — Thu, 09 Apr 2015 12:53:54 GMT

Is there a way to align one of the columns to the right?

CODE:

layout overlay / HALIGN=RIGHT xaxisopts=(display=none)

yaxisopts=(reverse=true display=none) walldisplay=none;

referenceline y=ref / lineattrs=(thickness=15 color=_color);

scatterplot y=subgroups x=zero / markercharacter=drug1

markercharacterattrs=graphvaluetext;

endlayout;

I tried added HALIGN=RIGHT, and it still looks like this:

Thank you for all the help!

I'm not sure if this will work but try just=right or just=r.

Just tried. Still centered.

I'm at a loss, take a look and see if this helps:

With SAS 9.3 you can use DataLabelPosition on the MarkerChar to align your data.

With SAS 9.4, you can use the Axis Table with many options.

Note, the HALIGN=RIGHT is for alignment of this layout itself inside the parent layout, and not for alignment of the text in a column.

Sorry to ask, but do you have an example?

What SAS release are you using? I an not sure what I can suggest with SAS 9.2.

I'm currently using 9.3. TY

The link above shows you a full example of a Forest Plot using SAS 9.3. Go to bottom of article and click on link to see full program.

You can use a ScatterPlot with DataLabel to show the values. Set DataLabelPosition to left or right and set marker size =0.

You can also use HighLow plot with HighLabel or LowLabel to display the values. Program above uses HighLow plot.
