Proc Template Logic

benbuck — Fri, 11 Mar 2016 03:26:07 GMT

Hi community,

I've been struggling to teach myself Proc Template and have come up with the code below. It plots four scatter plots, but I only want a discrete legend in two of those plots, so I've created a _key dynamic variable to try to make this happen. The problem is that it is only creating the discrete legend in one of my graphics.

I'd really appreciate any help or guidance you all have to share!

Thanks

Ben

The generic approach is to add a name to the plots in the options such as: Name="plot1" for each of your plots.

Then add a Discretelegend statement(s) that reference only the plots that you want the legends to display.

You can reference multiple plots in a single discretelegend statement.

I tend to put this just before the endlayout but they do have to appear withing the layout definition.

Discretelegend "plot1" "plot2" / <options>;

endlayout;

Thanks! I really appreciate your effort and I think I'm almost there. I've attempted to make that change, but I keep getting an error that sas expected a quoted string for the SCATTERPLOT / NAME = option. My code is below:

SCATTERPLOT X = type Y = _yvar /GROUP = siteClassMarks
				includemissinggroup = False
				JITTER = AUTO
				MARKERATTRS = (	SIZE = 8 )
				NAME = "_plotname"
				;

Names in quotes like labels

Or you could create a dynamic variable to hold the names but that might get confusing as I can't think of a real good reason to do that.

Hi,

Can you share your datasets so I can take a further look please? I don't think the discrete legends are referenced properly in your examples.

Thanks.

Thanks for the offer to help! My colleagues and I decided to completely change the graph layout and now the legends are where we would like them to be.

Thanks!
