Dear All,
Can I please ask how do we increase the line thickness in legend?
And how do we add a black thin border around the bars and as well as to the legend entries?

Thanks a lot.

@Miracle If you use GTL, you can use the legenditem statement to increase the line thickness of the legend. For example:

 

legenditem type=markerline name="placebo" / lineattrs=(color=bib pattern=1 thickness=5) label="Placebo";

 

If you upload the final dataset or a sample dataset, I can show you an example.

 

Thanks,

Hi @djrisks .
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I tried keylegend.

Hi @Miracle, please look at the LEGENDITEM statement, instead of KEYLEGEND.

 

Many thanks,

Ops, my apologies.
i was meant to say legenditem not keylegend.
Yes, I have used both legenditem and keylegend together.
Thank you all for your response @PeterClemmensen @djrisks @Rick_SAS

In SAS 9.4M5, PROC SGPLOT supports the LEGENDITEM statement. See the section "Customize items in a legend" in the article "5 tips for customizing legends in PROC SGPLOT in SAS"
