| Overview: INSET Statement |
The INSET statement enables you to enhance a moving average control chart by adding a box or table (referred to as an inset) of summary statistics directly to the graph. A possible application of an inset is to present moving average parameters on the chart rather than displaying them in a legend. An inset can also display arbitrary values provided in a SAS data set.
Note that the INSET statement by itself does not produce a display but must be used in conjunction with an MACHART or EWMACHART statement. Insets are not available with line printer charts, so the INSET statement is not applicable when the LINEPRINTER option is specified in the PROC MACONTROL statement.
You can use options in the INSET statement to
specify the position of the inset
specify a header for the inset table
specify graphical enhancements, such as background colors, text colors, text height, text font, and drop shadows
