Hi, I'd like to colour the plots on my scatter diagram in red. The code I am currently using is:
ods graphics / reset imagemap;
title "Data Set 1 - Sales in 2015";
proc sgplot data = work.data1a (where =(online = 2));
scatter x = tradingyears y = sales2015;
label sales2015 = 'Sales in 2015';
run;
ods graphics / reset;
title;
I simply want to add like color='red'; but not sure how? TIA
use the markerattrs option after a forward slash in your scatter statement like this
title 'Coloring the markers red in a scatterplot';
proc sgplot data = sashelp.class;
scatter x=height y=weight / markerattrs=(color=red);
run;
title;
Here is the documentation for the scatter statement
and the documentation for Marker Attributes and Symbols, which are controlable with the markerattrs option
So in your case it will be
ods graphics / reset imagemap;
title "Data Set 1 - Sales in 2015";
proc sgplot data = work.data1a (where =(online = 2));
scatter x = tradingyears y = sales2015 / markerattrs=(color=red);
label sales2015 = 'Sales in 2015';
run;
ods graphics / reset;
title;
