Variable-names change in tables, SAS VA

GustavSandberg — Tue, 11 Jan 2022 13:32:10 GMT

Hello all,

in SAS VA I have created numerous tables, in which I would like the following format

Therefore I have, in SAS EG, created variables with three empty spaces before the first letter (" variable 1" etc.), whilst the sum-variables do not have these spaces. In SAS VA, when I use the "adjusted sorting"-function on this data-set, these spaces are still there.

When I assign this data to a table, the spaces do not show:

My goal is to highlight that the sum-rows are not "on the same level" as the other variables. If I can't use the spaces, is there a way to highlight these rows? Any suggestions?

I have also used the "total"-function in other tables. Is it possible to have the Total-row appear as the bottom row? And is there a way of re-naming it?

You would have to use a different characters, perhaps three dots, instead of the spaces.

Is your total in the data or are you using the Totals option in Visual Analytics? Visual Analytics does support placing the totals at the bottom or the top.

hello,

and thank you for your answer.

The total I use is the Totals option in Visual Analytics. But it puts the total at the top, and I have not found a way to move it to the bottom.

Best regards,

Gustav

You must have the Indented option turned on. For the indented layout, totals are always placed before the axis headings.
