Please, can you advise on this two challenges I am experiencing?
1. How do I write the superscript for -2 or -3 (i.e. X^-3).
2. Please, what is the code for subscripts?
I will appreciate any help.
For axis labels, you will need to use a combination of Unicode characters. Here is a simple example to create X^-4:
ods escapechar '~';
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
xaxis label="X~{unicode '207b'x}~{unicode '2074'x}"
labelattrs=GraphUnicodeText;
scatter x=weight y=height;
run;
You must also use a full-featured Unicode font to get many of the super/subscripts in your text. Referencing the GraphUnicodeText style element will give you one of those fonts that is also appropriate for your style.
Hope this helps!
Dan
