You can specify a format for the tick values by adding the TICKVALUEFORMAT= option to the LOGOPTS= list of options. In my test dataset I had associated format 5.3 to variables OR, LCL and UCL. Therefore, had I specified tickvalueformat=data (which I did not), I would have got the unwanted three decimals that you see. In the absence of a permanent format, SAS would have used BEST6. as the default.   So, try to enforce that default: /* Store repetitive code elements in macro variables */ %let plot=scatterplot x=or y=predictors / subpixel=off primary=true group=grp xerrorupper=ucl xerrorlower=lcl legendlabel="predictors" name="scatter"; %let xopts=type=log griddisplay=on display=(ticks tickvalues) tickvalueattrs=(size=7); %let yopts=reverse=true labelfitpolicy=split tickvalueattrs=(size=7) tickvaluehalign=left type=discrete discreteopts=(tickvaluefitpolicy=none colorbands=even colorbandsattrs=graphdatadefault(transparency=0.8)); /* Create the GTL template with a manually broken x-axis */ proc template; define statgraph forest_break; begingraph / datasymbols=(squarefilled); /* the column weights determine the space available */ layout lattice / columns=3 rowdatarange=union columnweights=(0.35 0.25 0.4) ; layout overlay / xaxisopts=(&xopts logopts=(viewmin=0.6 viewmax=0.8 minorticks=true tickvaluelist=(0.6 0.7 0.8) tickvalueformat=best6.)) yaxisopts=(display=(tickvalues line) &yopts) y2axisopts=(labelFitPolicy=Split); &plot; endlayout; layout overlay / xaxisopts=(&xopts logopts=(viewmin=0.9 viewmax=1.11 minorticks=true tickvaluelist=(0.9 0.95 1 1.05 1.1) tickvalueformat=best6.) offsetmin=0.02) yaxisopts=(display=none &yopts); &plot; ReferenceLine x=1 / clip=false; endlayout; layout overlay / xaxisopts=(&xopts logopts=(viewmin=1.16 viewmax=10 minorticks=true tickvaluelist=(1.2 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10) tickvalueformat=best6.) offsetmin=0.0075) yaxisopts=(display=none &yopts); &plot; innermargin / align=right; axistable value=or y=predictors / labelposition=min display=(label); axistable value=lcl y=predictors / labelposition=min display=(label); axistable value=ucl y=predictors / labelposition=min display=(label); axistable value=p y=predictors / labelposition=min display=(label); endinnermargin; endlayout; endlayout; endgraph; end; run; /* Use the template to create the graph */ ods graphics / reset=all; proc sgrender data=aha.forest template=forest_break; run; ...

Hello @hellohere,   Your approach fails because the macro call %get_min_st_ind(...) resolves to SAS code (DATA and PROC steps), whereas your intention is that it resolves to a single value (&_st_ind_lp_off_mm), as if macro get_min_st_ind was a function-style macro.   I would probably move the %LOCAL statement %local _st_ind_lp_off_mm; to macro test, remove the macro variable reference at the end of macro get_min_st_ind and use it in the %IF condition in macro test after a macro call %get_min_st_ind(...).   Here is a simplified example showing this structure:   %macro inner(firstname); proc sql noprint; select age into :mvar from sashelp.class where name="&firstname"; quit; %mend inner; %macro outer; %local mvar; %inner(Alfred) %if &mvar=14 %then %put FINE; %mend outer; %outer     ...

Hello @hellohere,   You can use the IFN and IFC functions in conjunction with %SYSFUNC to assign a value conditionally: %let ref_mm_ind_stind=%sysfunc(ifn(&mmnote=max, 400, &ref_mm_ind_stind)); ... View more

@PamG wrote: Is there a way to put it in a box with centering of the text? Centering is easy (add the justify=center option to the title statements). For a kind of box you could add the BCOLOR= option, e.g., bcolor=lightgray.   For a real box, however, you might need to resort to more complex tools such as ODS LAYOUT GRIDDED and PROC GSLIDE, as shown below. ods layout gridded; options center; goptions hsize=200pt vsize=90pt; proc gslide frame; note h=12pt; note h=18pt j=c "Data: aaa"; note h=18pt j=c "Years of study: xxx"; note h=18pt j=c "Outcomes: BBB"; run; quit; proc print data=sashelp.class; run; ods layout end; Result: ...
