WARNING: DISCRETELEGEND statement not under LAYOUT GLOBALLEGEND is ignored when there is a LAYOUT GL

[Stephen_Q]

This is my log an it has a warning. Who can tell me what's wrong with my program? Thank you ver much.

The WARNING is DISCRETELEGEND statement not under LAYOUT GLOBALLEGEND is ignored when there is a LAYOUT GL.

I'm not sure as I have nothing to test with but I think you are running into a violation of this restriction in the Globallegend

• The individual legends in the global legend can be arranged in a single row or a single column only.

Your code is using:

discretelegend "Day -1" "Day 3" "Day 8" "Day 15" /autoitemsize=true DISPLAYCLIPPED=true across=2;

and I think that the across=2 is going to try to make a two column two row display for that Discretelegend. Which would place one of the "rows" or "columns" outside of the global legend.

Again, I think.

I would suggest testing with Across=4 as something I think should be easy to test. If that does then if you are wanting a two rwo two column appearance use two Discrete legend statements, each with the Across=2

discretelegend "Day -1" "Day 3" /autoitemsize=true DISPLAYCLIPPED=true across=2;
discretelegend  "Day 8" "Day 15" /autoitemsize=true DISPLAYCLIPPED=true across=2;

I think that makes two items that are single rows. Again not at all tested as I have nothing to test any similar code with.

Thanks for your suggestion,but I testing with Across=4 also have a warning,it's the same as Across=2.
