Problem Note 17238: Plotted line(s) may be missing from a graph created with PROC GPLOT

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

Plotted lines may be unexpectedly missing from a plot created with the SAS/GRAPH GPLOT procedure. This issue is most likely to occur if multiple values of a character category variable specified on the PLOT statement of PROC GPLOT contains a leading blank.

To circumvent the problem, remove the leading blank from the values of the category variable using the LEFT function in a SAS DATA Step.

For example:

DATA NEW; SET OLD; <category-variable>=LEFT(<category-variable>); RUN; PROC GPLOT; PLOT <Y-axis-variable> * <X-axis-variable> = <category-variable> RUN; QUIT;
