Hello,
when I use this syntax in sgpanel (I am using LSAF = SAS9.4):
1)symbolchar name=sym1 char='2014'x ;
scatter x=avisitn y=mean / markerattrs=(symbol=sym1 size=10pt color=black) name="med";
I am not getting all datapoints right (half is visible, half is missing)
see attached file "symbolchar"
but when I use normal symbol=plus (commenting symbolchar statement)
2) scatter x=avisitn y=mean / markerattrs=(symbol=plus size=10pt color=black) name="med";
I am getting all results correctly.
I was using in previous graphs :
3) scatter x=avisit2n y=MEDIAN / MARKERCHAR=box_char MARKERCHARATTRS=(color= black size=10PT) yerrorlower = lci yerrorupper = uci ERRORBARATTRS=(color=black) name="med";
and in dataset:
box_char="--------";
but this produces legend that show squarefilled instead of dash
I want to know how to show dash as graphical representation of the mean on top of other scatter plots in procedure sgpanel.
Full sgpanel syntax for reference
proc sgpanel data = xxxx;

colaxis type=linear integer label="Weeks" VALUES=( 1 3 5 7 9 11);
run;
Here is some example data and a program that works in the latest version of SAS:
data have;
call streaminit(123);
do tseqpg1 = 0, 1;
do avisitn = 1 to 4;
mean = avisitn;
do i = 1 to 30;
y = rand("Normal", mean, 1);
output;
end;
end;
end;
drop i;
run;
proc sgpanel data=have noautolegend;
panelby tseqpg1;
symbolchar name=sym1 char='2014'x / textattrs=(family='Arial Unicode MS' weight=bold);
scatter x=avisitn y=y / jitter transparency=0.5;
scatter x=avisitn y=mean / markerattrs=(symbol=sym1 size=40);
run;
Hopefully, it works for you. If not, supply some sample data. Maybe we can use a HIGHLOW or VECTOR statement to create the graph you want.
