Thanx Jay. I was hoping to be able to achieve this alignement for independent graphs, as I used to do with SAS/GRAPH. I understand from your answer that this way of working is not supported by ODS Graphics. I'll therefore adopt the SGPANEL (I think SGSCATTER will do it as well) or LAYOUT LATTICE. Have a nice day (midnight for me)... Xavier. ... View more

Hi,  I am using SAS 9.4 (TS1M4), Win10, 64. Here is an examle of SAS code : data sample (drop = i); do i = 1 to 50; x = rannor(-1); ysmall = rannor(-1); ylarge = ysmall * 1e3; output; end; run; ods graphics on / reset = all width = 9cm height = 6cm; proc sgplot data = sample pad = (left = 2cm); scatter x = x y = ysmall; inset "pad = (left = 2cm)" "Small y values"; xaxis label = "X axis label"; yaxis label = "Y axis label"; run; proc sgplot data = sample pad = (left = 2cm); scatter x = x y = ylarge; inset "pad = (left = 2cm)" "Large y values"; xaxis label = "X axis label"; yaxis label = "Y axis label"; run; I have annotated the output below. The red line shows what the PAD is doing (same value for the two graphs). I would like the two blue lines to be aligned (which is what the ORIGIN option of AXIS does in SAS/GRAPH).     ... View more

Thanx Rick, but I am afraid this is not right. The PAD option controls the space around the whole [graph + label + ticks] area. See the example below: it adds the extra blue space. It does not allow me to set the distance between the axis and the border of the graphic output. ... View more

Hi Rick, Thank you for your message. May be my question is not well explained. Here is what I would like to control (the two blue arrows): Thanx, Xavier. ... View more

Thank you for this answer. From my tests, it seems that the PAD option creates empty space around the whole area (including axis label and tick values). This will not prevent SAS to adjust the position of the axis line to accomodate for the needed space for ticks and label. ... View more
