You need to use a secondary classifier on the SERIES plot, and tell the legend to show only the line color. Here is an example using the data from the other post:   data test; input usubjid$ trta$ avisit$ aval; datalines; xx-01 A Day1 10 xx-01 A Day5 11 xx-02 A Day1 9 xx-02 A Day5 10 xx-03 B Day1 20 xx-03 B Day5 17 xx-04 B Day1 19 xx-04 B Day5 21 ; run; proc sgplot data=test; series x=avisit y=aval / group=usubjid grouplc=trta; keylegend / type=linecolor title="TRTA"; run;     ...

The reason the label is printing in the middle is that the annotation variables for the X and Y positions are incorrectly named. These reserved variable names must be called X1 and Y1. Some annotations require two coordinates, in which case you would use X1/Y1 and X2/Y2. Let me know if you still have any issues. ... View more

I'm not sure where the final destination is for your graph, but here is one way to do it. First, generate your output using the ODS WORD destination. Here is an example: ods _all_ close; ods word file="class.docx"; ods graphics / outputfmt=svg; proc sgplot data=sashelp.class; scatter x=weight y=height / datalabel=name; run; ods _all_ close; Next, open the file in Microsoft Word. Right-click on the graph and select, "Convert to Shape". You can then edit and move your labels. Then, deselect the graph, right-click on it, and select, "Save as Picture". This image will external save your edits as a PNG image.   Hope this helps! ... View more

Here are the steps: -- Run ODS PATH SHOW; to check your paths for template reading and writing. The default will look something like the following: Current ODS PATH list is: 1. SASUSER.TEMPLAT(UPDATE) 2. SASHELP.TMPLMST(READ) This would cause your changes to be written to SASUSER.TEMPLAT, which is permanent storage. That would mean that every time you ran PROC LIFETEST, it would pick up your changes, which is probably not desirable. I would recommend running the following statement: ods path (prepend)work.templat(update); which will make your template write and read from template store live only for the life of your session. -- Add ODS TRACE ON; to the top of your original program and re-run it. The log will tell you which template was used to produce the plot (let's pick stat.lifetest.graphics.productlimitsurvival for this example). -- Using the template name, run the following code. The proc will put the source to the template in the log, starting with "define statgraph" and ending with an "end;"   proc template; source stat.lifetest.graphics.productlimitsurvival; run; -- In a clean editor, create the following code block:     proc template; < code from the log > run; -- In the code, look for all occurrences of the DATATRANSPARENCY option and remove them.   -- Submit the code. You should see it write to WORK.TEMPLATE. -- Submit your original PROC LIFETEST code and see if you can generate an EPS file now.   Let me know how it goes 🙂 ... View more
