The TIMEPLOT Procedure

PROC TIMEPLOT Statement

PROC TIMEPLOT <option(s)>;

Options

DATA=SAS-data-set

identifies the input data set.

MAXDEC=number

specifies the maximum number of decimal places to print in the listing.

Interaction:

A decimal specification in a format overrides a MAXDEC= specification.

Default:	2
Range:	0-12
Featured in:	Superimposing Two Plots

SPLIT='split-character'

specifies a split character, which controls line breaks in column headings. It also specifies that labels be used as column headings. PROC TIMEPLOT breaks a column heading when it reaches the split character and continues the heading on the next line. Unless the split character is a blank, it is not part of the column heading. Each occurrence of the split character counts toward the 256-character maximum for a label.

Alias:	S=
Default:	blank (' ')

Note: Column headings can occupy up to three lines. If the column label can be split into more lines than this fixed number, then the split character is used only as a recommendation on how to split the label. [cautionend]

UNIFORM

uniformly scales the horizontal axis across all BY groups. By default, PROC TIMEPLOT separately determines the scale of the axis for each BY group.

Interaction:

UNIFORM also affects the calculation of means for reference lines (see REF=).
