SG Plot Specific VBAR anotation add text top of the bar

[raja777pharma]

Hi ,

I would like to add text/special (Mar20*) charcters in the one of the selected bar as below.

I am using below code.

proc sgplot data=indata;
	   styleattrs 
	   datafillpatterns=(r1 r3 x1 l3)
	   datacontrastcolors=(white black black black);
	   symbolchar
	   
	   vbar group1 / response=COL1 group=group2 grouporder=data groupdisplay=stack fillattrs=(color="white") 
	   				   outlineattrs=(color="black") fillpattern;
	   keylegend / position=bottom title="Bottom TItle 1";
	   yaxis grid label="Number of tiles";
	   xaxis display=(nolabel) discreteorder=data valueattrs=(size=7);   
	run;

Thank you,

Rajasekhar

Provide a variable with the value associated with the xaxis variable

In the VBAR statement:

Use DATALABEL= the variable name you create for that text

Use DATALABELATTRS to set attributes for the text

Use DATALABELPOS=Top to place the text at the top of the bar. You may want to control the Y Axis to allow space inside the graph for this.

ods graphics /attrpriority=none;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.heart;
	   styleattrs  datafillpatterns=(r1 r3 x1 l3)
	   datacontrastcolors=(white black black black);	   
	   vbar Smoking_Status / response=weight group=bp_status grouporder=data groupdisplay=stack fillattrs=(color="white") 
	   				   outlineattrs=(color="black") fillpattern;
	   keylegend / position=bottom title="Bottom TItle 1";
	   yaxis grid label="Number of tiles";
	   xaxis display=(nolabel) discreteorder=data valueattrs=(size=7);

Here's how to do it with annotate ...

data indata; set sashelp.stocks (where=(year(date)=2005));
run;
proc sort data=indata out=indata; 
by date;
run;

proc sql noprint;
create table my_anno as
select unique date, sum(volume) as total_volume
from indata
group by date;
quit; run;

data my_anno; set my_anno;
length label $100 anchor x1space y1space textweight $50;
layer="front";
function="text"; textcolor="red"; textsize=10; textweight='bold'; anchor='bottom'; 
width=100; widthunit='percent'; 
if date='01apr2005'd then label="April Fools!"; 
x1space='datavalue';
y1space='datavalue'; 
x1=date;
y1=total_volume;
run;

proc sgplot data=indata sganno=my_anno;
vbar date / response=volume group=stock grouporder=data groupdisplay=stack;
keylegend / position=bottom title="Bottom TItle 1";
yaxis grid label="Total Volume of Stock Traded";
xaxis display=(nolabel) discreteorder=data valueattrs=(size=7);
run;
