Im producing a plot using GTL and the font on the vertical axis is set as arial. only it doenst appear to be arial. All the rest of the text appears to be correct, just this axis. log doesnt give any error or warning (or clue that its not arial)
code below (which is part of a larger macro) and plot attached.
proc template;
define statgraph Placebo;

Hi,
I cannot find anything anywhere which states that family="" is valid syntax on a yaxisopts statement. So what I suspect is happening is that GTL is fine with your label text, however it ignores that bit and defaults to whatever style is in effect. TBH I always keep my style template separate from the graph template anyways, so:
proc template;
define style Styles.MyGraph / store = WORK.TEMPLAT;
parent = Styles.tlg;
style GraphFonts /
'GraphDataFont' = ("Arial",9pt)
'GraphValueFont' = ("Arial",9pt)
'GraphLabelFont' = ("Arial",9pt)
'GraphFootnoteFont' = ("Arial",9pt)
'GraphTitleFont' = ("Arial",9pt);
style GraphWalls from GraphWalls /
frameborder = off ;
end;
run;
ods rtf file="..." style=mygraph;
proc sgrender...
ods rtf close;
Yes, Labelattrs supports FAMILY. Looks under text-options.
LABELATTRS=style-element | style-element (text-options) | (text-options)
If the specified font is not found, it will default to other font as specified in the style and registry. Arial is a Windows font, and may not be available on all platforms. In such cases Albany AMT may be used, which is a SAS supplied sans-serif font.
Its using arial throughout the rest of the plot so its available. it just doesnt seem to use it on this label.
Hmm, its odd. looks ok in the original png file. let me investigate further.
