Xaxis Table and Legend Clipped

[_Hopper]

I have this code within a macro and I needed to add an XAXISTABLE statement. Now the legend is clipped. What are my options?

proc sgplot data=PLOTDATA dattrmap=&attr;
series x=Month2 y=aval / group=CAT break transparency=0.2 lineattrs=(pattern=solid thickness = 2.0pt) markers markerattrs = (size= 6pt ) attrid = linecolors ;
xaxis offsetmin = 0.015 min = -1 fitpolicy = none values = (0 1 3 6 12 18 24 36 48 60 72 84 96) label = 'Month' labelattrs = (size = 7pt family = "Courier New")
valueattrs = (size = 7pt family = "Courier New");
yaxis values = (&low to &high by &by) label = "&&param&i" grid labelattrs = (size = 7pt family = "Courier New") valueattrs = (size = 7pt family = "Courier New");
xaxistable n / class = cat valueattrs = (size = 7pt) labelattrs = (size = 7pt);
keylegend / type=marker title="" valueattrs = (size = 7pt family = "Courier New") noborder ;

run;

• Sure you want to work with Courier New? It's a monospace font (exact same horizontal width for every character - like "i" and "w"). Working with a proportional font might save some space.
• Increase the size of the graph using the HEIGHT= and/or WIDTH= option in the ODS GRAPHICS statement.
• Use the MAXLEGENDAREA= option in the ODS GRAPHICS statement to increase the space available for the legend.

Does it help?

When you say "clipped", do you mean the legend is dropped, or the legend area  is overwritten? If it is dropped, try increasing the LEGENDAREAMAX on the ODS GRAPHICS statement:

ods graphics / legendareamax=35; /* This means 35 percent */
