sgplot: vline datalabel font size

[gzr2mz39]

Does anyone know how to increase the font size for datalabel?
proc sgplot data=yrp;
vbar yoi / response=yr_tot;
vline yoi / response=avg y2axis datalabel=avg;
y2axis min=0 max=10000;
run;
Thank you.

Hey,

For now, you must adjust the size through the ODS style. Here is a simple example:
[pre]
proc template;
define style biglabel;
parent=styles.listing; /* or your favorite style */
style GraphDataText from GraphDataText /
fontsize=10pt;
end;
run;

ods listing style=biglabel;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
scatter x=weight y=height / datalabel;
run;
[/pre]

Hope this helps,
Dan

A png file was created that looked correct.
However the graph in my rtf file (I'm using ods rtf) did not reflect the change.
Thank you.

Hi:
You might be looking at the old file, especially if Word was still open when you reran your code. Are you seeing any messages in the log, such as:
[pre]
ERROR: File is in use, C:\temp\report.rtf.
[/pre]

Also make sure you specified the style on the ODS RTF statement.

[gzr2mz39]

You are correct. I didn't add the style to ods rtf statement. Thank you.

One other note: the default style for ODS RTF is the RTF style. You may want to change the PARENT in the BIGLABEL style to be styles.rtf to get your previous output appearance.

Thanks!
