Hi, experts,

1.I use proc template to customize the graph template. Maybe due to the icon at the bottom, the label is far away from the Y-axis. I want to set the label="Survival Probability" in the graph closer to the Y-axis. 

2. How to set the legend in the upper right corner of Figure 2?

Thank you for your clarification. Thank you.

Your DRAWTEXT statement would look something like the following (Adjust the X value to taste. It should be a value < 0, since it is relative to the wall):

drawtext  textattrs=GraphLabelText "Survival Probability" / rotate=90 drawspace=wallpercent y=50 x=-10;

1. The axis label is getting pushed out because the length of the AXISTABLE labels at the bottom. Some options to fix the issue include the following:

  • disable the labels and rely on the color coding
  • Shorten the label using a user-defined format (this might not be possible, as you are probably sharing the group variable with the plot)
  • Disable the Y-axis label and use a DRAWTEXT statement to put the axis label closer to the axis (this is probably your best option)

2. The DISCRETELEGEND need to be inside your LAYOUT OVERLAY, and set the POSITION to be TOPRIGHT.

 

Hope this helps!

Sorry, I realized that for #2, I accidentally put the SGPLOT option for positioning the legend. For GTL, you should use HALIGN=RIGHT and VALIGN=TOP. Thanks!
