graphic output of proc macontrol

monicluder — Tue, 18 Aug 2020 09:57:58 GMT

Hello!

I'm using proc macontrol with data related to 18 months; the plot is fragmented on many pages, with difficulties to read it. Is it possible to force then graphic on a single page? Thanks

Script:

proc macontrol data=decessi_1; by distretto;

ewmachart giorni_rapp*dt_decesso / weight = 0.2

outhistory = prova_hist outlimits = Cliplim;

run;

The only thing that looks promising to me is the MAXPANELS= option. If you want all on a single page, the code might look like this:

proc macontrol data=decessi_1; by distretto;
ewmachart giorni_rapp*dt_decesso / weight = 0.2 MAXPANELS=1;
outhistory = prova_hist outlimits = Cliplim;
run;

Not sure though.

Thank you Steven, but unfortunately it does not work: the error message is:

ERROR: The number of panels needed is 12 which exceeds the maximum of 1.

Try this: On the EWMACHART statement, use the NPANELPOS= option and use a large value, such as

ewmachart giorni_rapp*dt_decesso / weight = 0.2 NPANELPOS=5000;
