Over the next several #CustomTaskTuesdays, leading up to PharmaSUG 2019, I will be releasing tasks for customizing SGPLOT graphs. The graphs used will all be clinical graph examples from Sanjay Matange’s posts on Graphically Speaking.
At PharmaSUG, I will be leading a hands-on training titled: Developing Custom SAS Studio Tasks for Clinical Graphs. For those who can't attend in person, I'll be posting about all of the tasks here on SAS Communities.
These plots will be used from Sanjay’s blog to create graph customizing tasks. Over the next four weeks I will release posts for tasks that will allow users to create and customize each of these graphs!
Injection Site Reaction Grouped Bar Chart
Change in Tumor Size Waterfall Chart
There are many common changes users want to make to graphs, all of which we can build in as parameters for Custom Tasks using specific controls. These controls will be used in the upcoming posts of tasks for clinical graph creations. Let's take a look at the common changes users want to make to graphs and the task controls that go with them.
Data set selector
Role (variable) selector
Individual color selector
Combo box (drop down) populated with color themes
Text input boxes
Radio button with legend orientations
Drop downs for legend location and position
The upcoming posts will focus on the task creation for SGPLOT code. If you're interested in learning more about SGPLOT, here are some resources:
