I create a scatter plot in EG-project outputting it into standard EG report output destination (not sure, how to call it correctly?). The scatter plot is a bit crowded along y-axis, so I'd like to stretch it vertically. I tried to change goptions vsize= and goptions ypixels=, but it doesn't make any changes in the plot appearance. Would appreciate any help with that!

How are you creating the scatter plot?  Are you using the EG Scatter Plot task (which uses PROC GPLOT), using PROC GPLOT directly, or are you using PROC SGPLOT?

If using the Scatter Plot task, there are options in the task for controlling the dimensions: these will control the GOPTIONS.  If using PROC SGPLOT or SGSCATTER, you need to use ODS GRAPHICS / HEIGHT= and WIDTH= options.

If you can post an example, we can provide further guidance.

Thanks Chris. I'm using SGPLOT and HEIGHT= and WIDTH= options did the trick. Thanks a lot!
