Hi--

I've reached my limit of tinkering to figure this out.

 

Is there a way to overlay multiple graph types in a single graph?

 

I have a data set with columns X Y1 Y2 Y3 and Y4.

 

I want to plot Y1 using a scatter plot (points color coded by group for a little extra level of complication)

I want Y2 to be plotted with just a simple line

I want Y3 and Y4 to be plotted with a different line type

basically a combination of these two styles basically.  I'd like the top one, but with the colors by group as is so easily produced in SGPlot

 

Thank you.

Ahh.

 

I feel certain I had tried this already... but it's easy.

 

proc sgplot data=a;
styleattrs datasymbols=(circlefilled);
scatter y=Y1 x=X1 / group=groupname;
series y=Y2 x=X1;
series y=Y3 x=X1 / lineattrs = (pattern=shortdash);
series y=Y4 x=X1 / lineattrs = (pattern=shortdash);
run;
quit;

Yes, in PROC SGPLOT you use the REG command with the option NOMARKERS to get the confidence limits and regression line. Then you add a SCATTER statement to get the data points colored as you wish.

I saw that feature.  Unfortunately, I'm not using an OLS regression in this case, so the regression methods won't match the models I'm actually building.

I think the solution may lie in the series statements, I'm still tinkering.
