Optional Arguments

DATA=SAS-data-set

identifies the input data set.

MAXDEC=number

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

Default:2

Range:0-12

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

Example: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.

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=reference-value(s) ).
