Problem Note 2508: PROC GPLOT with relatively small values might cause the AREAS= option to fill the entire axis frame

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The AREAS= option specified in the PLOT statement of the GPLOT procedure might produce an incorrect fill if the line that is being filled has very small values relative to the axis range. For example, a plot line with all of its values less than 0.1 might exhibit this behavior if the axis range is 0 to 15,000. Instead of being very small, the fill area might extend beyond the plot line and fill the entire axis frame. The problem appears to be data dependent.

To circumvent the problem, specify the NOPCLIP, NOPOLYGONCLIP, and NOPOLYGONFILL options in a GOPTIONS statement. For example:

goptions nopclip nopolygonclip nopolygonfill;
