SGPLOT graph patterns

[jacksonan123]

I have the following code which works.  Can someone tell me how to modify the code so that the graph will have patterns instead of color?  

ods pdf file='/folders/myfolders/Cmax_con/peaksdistr.pdf/';  
 ods graphics on /width=4 in; 
 title 'Cmax distribution Peak1';
 proc sgplot data=peak1;
  histogram  y/ legendlabel='Calculated Cmax' fillattrs=(color=red) name= 's' legendlabel ='Calculated Cmax' transparency=0.5 ;
   histogram  dv/ legendlabel='Calculated Cmax' fillattrs=(color=green) name= 'o' legendlabel ='Observed Cmax' transparency=0.5 ;
  keylegend 's' 'o'  /location=inside position =topright across=1; 
  xaxis label='ng/ml'; 
  
 run;
  ods pdf close;

You might prefer one of the journal styles.

Perhaps add style=journal2 to your ODS PDF statement.

For v940m5, it is as simple as specifying FILLPATTERN and NOFILL on both HISTOGRAM statements. However, for prior versions, you will need to make an ODS style change to get the patterns. Something like the following:

proc template;
define style styles.mypat;
  parent=styles.HTMLBlue;
  style Graphhistogram from GraphComponent /
      displayopts = "outline fillpattern"
  ;
end;
run;

ods html style=styles.mypat;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
  histogram weight;
  histogram height;
run;

This option also works well.

FILLPATTERN is an option on the Histogram statement if you want manual control of the patterns.

This is also an approach that works.
