SGANNO Overwhelms SGPLOT

1. Use the FILLATTRS and ALTFILLATTRS options to reverse the color assignments in that case.

2. Use FILLTYPE=MULTICOLOR to switch to multicolor mode, and use the DATACOLORS option on the STYLEATTRS statement to control the colors.

Hope the helps!

As in the MWE, I am plotting these series with the BY statement. I need to reverse not all but only the problematic results.

It seems I need MULTICOLOR anyway to respectively assign specific colors to specific values.

If you want to assign specific colors to specific BLOCK values, use an ATTRIBUTES MAP with the FILLTYPE=MULTICOLOR setting. That way, the correct colors will be used regardless of data order.

If you do the bands manually, which is what annotation is, then you need to manually ensure they fit within the graphic plotting area. There are valid use cases for having annotations outside of the main graph area so that isn't a limitation within the annotation - there may or may not be an option that supports it. But to have a dynamic solution you either can ensure your data is within the bounds (macro?) or you need to use a different approach, like blockplot, as previously suggested.
