Calcite | Level 5

Hi,

It would be great if someone could help me figure this out.

When I run the following code:

proc gplot;

plot x*y=z;

run;

quit;

The "y" variable is categorical with 2 categories and the 2 categories are on 2 ends of the xaxis, very, very close to the vertical borders of the plot. How can I move the categories to the middle so that there is some empty space between the category and the border/y axis

Thanks!

One way would be to use the 'offset' option in an axis statement, to add some offset to the left & right...

data foo;
input y $1 x z;
datalines;
A 3.6 1
B 2.8 2
;
run;

axis1 offset=(30,30);

proc gplot;
plot x*y=z / haxis=axis1;
run;
