gplot filling an area above a line

[deleted_user]

Can I fill an area above a line in an gplot? Everything I see in the manual shows filling the area below the line

Yes, you can. The trick is ask for two areas and set the first color to be the same as the background. Here is an example:

pattern1 c=white;
pattern2 c=blue;
symbol i=join;

proc gplot data=sashelp.class;
plot height*name / areas=2;
run;
