Dear All,
I set up yaxis scale as from 0.1 to 100 but it does not work (see dataset and code below). Could someone help me? I use SAS 9.2 (32). thanks!
data char;
input Date Rate1 RL Rate2 RU;

proc sgplot data=char;
xaxis label='Date' values=(0 to 24 by 4) ;
yaxis label="Rate" values=(0.1 to 100 by 10) type=log logbase=10 logstyle=logexpand minor ;
series x=Date y=Rate2 / lineattrs=(pattern=solid color=black thickness=1.5)

You're going to get the lob value not the value you specify in the axis statement.
What exactly do you want that axis to look like? "Doesn't work" is kind of hard to interpret without details.
Dear Ballardw,
I want the y-axis scale to be from 0.1 to 100. how to do that? thanks! John
after I set the "values=(0.1 to 100 by 10)", the scale still showed from 1 to 10, not from 0.1 to 100 as I wanted
I'm curious about what you think displaying 100 means in context of a logarithmic axis when your data example has a max value less than 5.
If you are using SAS 9.3 or later, the following YAXIS code may work better for you:
yaxis label="Rate" values=(0.1 1 10 50 100) min=0.1 max=100 type=log logbase=10 logstyle=logexpand minor ;
Sanjay,
it works at SAS 9.4.
Thanks!!!
John
the reason to set up from 0.1 to 100 is to compare with other figures that have the same scale
If you succeed in getting that label your displayed graph is going to be pretty unreadable unless you make it like 15 or 20 inches in the vertical dimension since you data only goes to 5 it will only use 5% of the graph vertical space.
Hi,
Not sure, how type=log works in the above code? log for values < 1 will generate negative values.
