Improving Your Graphics Using SAS/GRAPH Annotate Facility

Category: Data Management

Overview The Annotate facility in SAS/GRAPH allows the user to enhance or change features of the plot or chart. This paper introduces Annotate and provides practical examples to illustrate how to improve the graphs. The user does not need to be an expert at SAS/GRAPH to use Annotate. Even though Annotate is an extremely powerful tool for creating entirely custom figures, with a few guidelines (and the Annotate macros) it can be easy to use for simpler tasks. The paper explains the principles behind Annotate and gives specific examples of some common uses: adding a label to a single point on a graph, re-labeling an axis, adding a custom box of text, and applying "White out" to unwanted text.
