The Graphics Output Environment

How Errors in Sizing Are Handled

Sometimes SAS/GRAPH cannot fit one or more graphic elements on the graph. This can happen if an element is too big for the available space (for example, the title is too long), or if you have too many elements to fit in a given space (for example, a bar chart has too many bars). In these cases, SAS/GRAPH does one of the following:

For example, it adjusts the size of titles to make them fit but it does not drop bars in order to produce a readable bar chart. If you get unexpected results or no graph, check the SAS log for notes, warnings, and errors.
