How to rotate the y axis of all plots

Hi, I am experiencing a problem where all of the letters of the y axis are not rotated erroneously.

For example, the alphabetical letters of the variable NAPHTOL_C would be shown up in the usual way, but the writing direction would also be vertical, and thus colliding with eachother causing difficulties in reading.

I tried to find out how to rotate the texts in an output graph, but as for my knowledge such rotating options exist for only some procedures, such as PROC SGPLOT.

However, the above problem is not limited to one type of output, but on all graphic outputs.

Is there an universal option where I can fix such a problem?

Thank you!

Are you saying that you wish to plot the label for all Y axes for all plots so that the text is vertical, such as

N
A
P
H
T
O
L
_
C

This is sometimes called "hotel text".

If that is what you want, it isn't possible to do this automatically. Although graphs support rotating tick values (FITPOLICY=STACKEDALWAYS), the labels do not support that kind of display.
