Hi - Is there a way to wrap a y-axis title when using xaxistable (to get around at present I am using labelpos=top, but would prefer it at the default for consistency with other charts).

 

Eg. of problem the following code : 

 

proc sgplot data=sashelp.cars(where=(make = 'Acura'));
vbar model/response=invoice;
yaxis label= "This no longer wraps, how can I get it to wrap?";
xaxistable invoice /label="a" valueattrs= (color=liggr) labelattrs=(size=8pt);
run;

 

returns the following:

Another way, not mentioned in the linked article is to place the xaxistable inside the plot area.  Set LOCATION=INSIDE on the xAxisTable.

xaxistable invoice /label="a" valueattrs= (color=liggr) labelattrs=(size=8pt) location=inside;
