Hi,
I would like to define which value corresponds to neutral in the colour ramp for a bubble chart. Does anyone know how I could achieve this? E.g. For the following sample code, assume I wish to make weight 80 to be neutral colour (i.e. white)...
Note that in some instances the colour variable the desired neutral colour value will be less than the midpoint, an in others greater than the midpoint.
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
bubble x=age y=height size=age / bradiusmin=0
transparency=0.5 colorresponse=weight
colormodel=(blue white red);
run;
All help much appreciated
Thanks,
Marie
The best way to do that is to use a range attrmap. If you need to change the neutral value, you can do it in the data step.
data attrmap;
retain id "myid";
input min $ 1-5 max $ 7-11 excludemin $ 13-17 excludemax $ 19-23 colormodel1 $ 25-29 colormodel2 $ 31-35;
cards;
_min_ 80 false true blue white
80 _max_ false false white red
;
run;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class rattrmap=attrmap;
bubble x=age y=height size=age / bradiusmin=0
transparency=0.5 colorresponse=weight rattrid=myid;
run;

That's excellent. Thank-you!
