Yes, this code worked, amazing!! :smileylaugh: Just to be a little picky, different fonts in one label do not look as natural as if fonts are same. I still prefer to use the code you and danH provided at the first time. I will wait for my 9.3 :smileygrin:, Thanks guys, very helpful!!! The left one is from the geek/swiss fonts combined (in this way, we can use a lot of special symbols); the right pic is from the "latin1-supplement" code (in this way we can have very limited symbol options) ...

, Yes your code worked in sgplot! thanks! The only reason that I did not use sgplot for my boxplot was that there is no "group" statement in SAS9.2. So still a SAS version problem, lol. But your code will be very useful for the future! thanks!! ... View more

Yes, I agree. Using annotate we can do what ever we want in gplot. But the only problem is efficiency. Anyway, I am getting my 9.3 at the end of this month. I already learned about its improvement. Looking forward to having it :smileygrin:. Thanks for the advice again! ... View more

no, I used gplot + %annotate to do those boxplots. Did not use any dev options. I think it should be my SAS version problem. ... View more

, Thanks for the advice. I tried your code but still had the sample overlap looking result. In my Label statement, I used: axis2 order= 0 to 800 by 100       value=(f=arial c=black h=2.5)       label=( h=3 c=black  a=90 font="Arial/unicode" "03bc"x font="albany amt" '  ' font="albany amt/unicode" '006d'x )       minor=none; I also tested DanH's code: axis2 order= 0 to 800 by 100       value=(f=arial c=black h=2.5)       label=( h=3 c=black  a=90 font="Arial/unicode" "03bc"x "006d"x )       minor=none; ...

@DanH. I had the SAS 9.2, I tried to restart my SAS, but still keep having this "overlap" style label. I thought I might mess up the goption settings, but after doing a goption reset=all, I still got the following graph. ... View more

What I tired was the GPLOT code, have not tried the Sgplot yet, but I will ... View more

@DanH, Thanks for the quick reply. I tried you code, the code worked. The problem is, the "mu" and the "m" overlap each other. How can I set them one after another in the label? Thanks again! ... View more

I found a way to do this, by using the following code: label=(f=arial h=3 c=black justify=c a=90 "Length (%sysfunc(byte(181),$1.)m)" ) The "%sysfunc(byte(181),$1.)" should show as the the 'mu' sign in the gplot. The number "181" came from the following unicode chart: (link) Unicode Chart We can see that "mu" can be located from "181" (Latin-1 Supplement chart). If we want other symbols, we can just simply replace the "181" with other numbers. Then here comes the second question: The method above works and only works for Latin-1 Supplement chart. How if we want to throw in other special symbols? ... View more
