I found this code from a different post to add a footnote within a plot while simultaneously having a footnote outside the plot.

data boxplot;
 retain function "text" drawspace "graphpercent" width 100 x1 50;
 length anchor $ 6 textstyleelement $ 17 label $ 18;
 input y1 anchor $ textstyleelement $ label $ 29-100;
 cards;
 1  bottom GraphFootnoteText Note: Concentrations were adjusted for dose received at time of sample taken
 ;
run;

Is there a way to edit the aesthetic? Specifically I would like to make the text a tad smaller left aligned (so it doesn't get confused with the x-axis label).

That looks like part of an annotate data set?
If so, you can specify the font under a STYLE variable and the size with SIZE. Not sure about the alignment.

If that's used with SGTEMPLATE/RENDER the above may not apply.

anchor controls the position. For example anchor="BOTTOMLEFT".
