REFLINE Statement
Creates a horizontal or vertical reference line.
| Example: | About Reference Lines |
Syntax
REFLINE variable | value-1 <... value-n> </ option(s)>;
Summary of Optional Arguments
Line options
specifies the axis that contains the reference line
values.
specifies an amount to offset all lines from discrete
X or Y values.
creates labels for each reference line.
specifies the position of the labels.
specifies the appearance of the reference line.
extends the plot axes to contain the reference lines.
Plot options
specifies a label that identifies the markers from
the plot in the legend.
specifies a name for the plot.
specifies the degree of transparency for the reference
lines.
Optional Arguments
- AXIS= X | Y
- specifies the axis that contains the reference line
values. For example, if you
specify AXIS= X, vertical reference lines are drawn at points on the
X axis.Default:Y
- DISCRETEOFFSET= numeric-value
- specifies an amount to offset all lines from discrete
X or Y values. Specify a value from
-0.5 (left offset) to +0.5 (right offset).Default:0.0 (no offset)Requirement:This option is applicable only when the X or Y axis is discrete.
- LABEL <= (“text-string-1” ... “text-string-n”)>
- creates labels for each reference line. If you do not specify a label for a line, the reference value for that line is used as the label.
- LABELPOS= MIN | MAX
- specifies the position of the labels. MIN specifies the label is placed at the minimum value of the data axis. MAX specifies that the label is placed at the maximum value of the data axis.
- LEGENDLABEL= “text-string”
- specifies a label that identifies the markers from
the plot in the legend. By default, the label
“Reference Line” is used.Interaction:This option has no effect unless you also specify the NAME= option.
- LINEATTRS= style-element <(options)> | (options)
- specifies the appearance of the reference line. You can specify the
appearance by using a style element or by using suboptions. If you
specify a style element, you can also specify suboptions to override
specific appearance attributes.
- COLOR= color
-
specifies the color of the line. You can specify colors using the same color schemes that are supported by
SAS/GRAPH software. For more information, see Color-Naming Schemes in SAS/GRAPH: Reference.Default:The default color is specified by the ContrastColor attribute of the GraphReference style element in the current style.
- PATTERN= line-pattern
-
specifies the line pattern for the line. You can reference SAS patterns by number or by name. For a list of line patterns, see Line Patterns.Default:The default line pattern is specified by the LinePattern attribute of the GraphReference style element in the current style.
- THICKNESS= n <units>
-
specifies the thickness of the line. You can also specify the unit of measure. The default unit is pixels. For a list of measurement units that are supported, see Units of Measurement.Default:The default line thickness is specified by the LineThickness attribute of the GraphReference style element in the current style.
- NAME= “text-string”
- specifies a name for the plot. You can use the name
to refer to this plot in other statements.Note:The name is case-sensitive. When you refer to the specified name in other statements, you must use the same exact capitalization.
