SG PLOT

[rosejolly]

Hi, In my current sgplot the cap is not appearing  for the second subject(one marked in yellow). Is there any method to resolve it or can it present in different way (with a star symbol).Thank you

Complete code and some example data would help. Copy the code from your editor, on the forum open a text box using the </> icon and paste the code.

Without knowing the current options you are using for the graph we will spend a lot of time guessing what you have and some suggestions may not work because they conflict with other choices made in your code.

I suspect that the value for that arrow is just too small. The length of the "cap" could imply a value not present in your data as it has a minimum size needed to display.

Edit:

I am guessing that you did a HIGHLOW plot. Depending on your settings for graphic area this may explain what happens:

data plot;
   do y=1 to 25;
      low=0;
      if y< 5 then high=y/5;
      else high=y;
      output;
   end;
run;

proc sgplot data=plot;
   highlow y=y low=low high=high /
      barwidth=1
      highcap=filledarrow
      type=bar
   ;
run;

Note that a "small" value for high, in this case 0.6 for Y=3, allows just the point but that smaller values of 0.4 and 0.2 there is not sufficient space for the entire triangle of the arrow so none is shown.
