I would like to have non-overlapping standard error or confidence limits. This is my code

 

proc sgplot data = class4.dental;
vline age / response = y stat = mean limitstat = clm group=gender curvelabel;
run;

Thank you for any sugggestions

Extending on Draycut's reply, use GROUPDISPLAY=CLUSTER and CLUSTERWIDTH=0.2 to get this result.

proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
vline age / response=height group=sex stat=mean limitstat=clm markers
groupdisplay=cluster clusterwidth=0.1 arkerattrs=(size=5 symbol=circlefilled);
run;

Are you sure you want to present your data like this? See this short example, which I assume resemble yours

 

proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
vline age / response=height group=sex stat=mean limitstat=clm;
run;

produces this

Already now, there are a lot of lines to grasp. And you want to offset the clm limits, adding more lines to the chart. I think you want to present your data in a more suitable manner? 🙂

You might provide an example data set that will let us see what you are currently getting or include an image. Then describe which  "overlapping" error bars or confidence limits are not desired.

"non-overlapping" could have a number of interpretations. For example with the image shown by @PeterClemmensen perhaps you would only want the widest confidence limit shown, or the narrowest for each age.

Another possible interpretation could be to not have male and female in the same graph.
