Y axis label position in two row Latice

[data_null__]

Is there a way to get the Y axis label in the top figure to move closer to the tick labels.  I get why it is positioned this way because of the tick values in the bottom figure.  I'm using GTL.

Look at annotation to place text at arbitrary locations. Start here for some details: https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/v_057/grstatgraph/p0rgjcddtqwpyin1ro3kvrksd6js.htm

Without data and complete template code I wouldn't even make an attempt at some other work around as there are just too many moving parts with GTL to have a chance of getting a working alternative.

That would be better if you could post some data and your GTL code to test your problem.

Here I make some dummy code to give you some help.

%sganno
data sganno;
 %SGTEXT(LABEL="Monophasic (11pts)",WIDTH=40,DRAWSPACE="LAYOUTPERCENT",ID="BAR",ROTATE=90,X1=15,Y1=30)
run;


proc template;
define statgraph y2axis;
begingraph;
layout lattice / rows=2 rowgutter=10
rowdatarange=union row2datarange=union;


layout overlay /  yaxisopts=( label=" " )  ;
histogram height / scale=count ;
histogram height / scale=percent;
densityplot height / normal();
annotate / id="BAR";
endlayout;

layout overlay /  yaxisopts=( label=" " )  ;
scatterplot y=smoking_Status x=weight;
endlayout;

endlayout;
endgraph;
end;
