im trying to plot using proc boxplot, but when i set the vaxis to the range that i want, sas gives me the error:
WARNING: For process variable X the VAXIS= values specified do not cover the data range.
WARNING: Default scaling is substituted.
I just want to zoom in on the boxplot to better see the changes in the medians. Is there a way for SAS to ignore the fact that my vaxis won't cover all of the data?
(note: i was somehow able to zoom in using vaxis two days ago, but today when i tried it, this warning kept coming up)
Thanks!
Providing a sample of the code would be helpful.
We have some great samples graphic samples that you might find useful. They are available on support.sas.com at http://support.sas.com/sassamples/graphgallery/index.html.
I always find sample code helpful. I hope you find this to be a useful resource as well.
If you are using proc gplot to get the boxplot, you can try using INTERPOL=BOX25 in the symbol statement. This will restrict the values to the 25th to 75th percentile.
