Adding value labels to SGPLOT

[sejiki7]

I have generated a graph used SGPLOT in SAS Studio, university edition, using the code below.

proc sgplot data=TABLE1;
	VBAR region;
	title 'Attacks by Region';
	footnote1 BOLD 'Codes';
	footnote3 'Region: MENA-Middle East/North Africa, WEUR-Western Europe, EEUR-Eastern Europe, NAME-North America, ASIA-Asia, OCEA-Oceana, SSAF-Sub Saharan Africa';
run;

While this works, the graph is difficult to read because one of the bars is so much larger than the others, which blows up the scale. Is there a way to add value labels and/or a grid to the plot?

Hi,

This should display the labels:

proc sgplot data=TABLE1;
	VBAR region / datalabel = <your variable containing labels>;
	title 'Attacks by Region';
	footnote1 BOLD 'Codes';
	footnote3 'Region: MENA-Middle East/North Africa, WEUR-Western Europe, EEUR-Eastern Europe, NAME-North America, ASIA-Asia, OCEA-Oceana, SSAF-Sub Saharan Africa';
run;

I hope this helps,

You could also consider a split axis.
