The MACONTROL Procedure

Axis Labels

You can specify axis labels by assigning labels to particular variables in the input data set, as summarized in the following table:

Axis

Input Data Set

Variable

Horizontal

all

subgroup-variable

Vertical

DATA=

process

Vertical

HISTORY=

subgroup mean variable

Vertical

TABLE=

_UWMA_

For example, the following sets of statements specify the label Moving Average of Clip Gaps for the vertical axis and the label Day for the horizontal axis of the moving average chart:

proc macontrol data=Clips1;
   machart Gap*Day / span=4;
   label Gap = 'Moving Average of Clip Gaps';
   label Day = 'Day';
run;

proc macontrol history=cliphist;
   machart Gap*Day / span=4;
   label GapX = 'Moving Average of Clip Gaps';
   label Day  = 'Day';
run;

proc macontrol table=cliptab;
   machart Gap*Day;
   label _uwma_   = 'Moving Average of Clip Gaps';
   label Day      = 'Day';
run;

In this example, the label assignments are in effect only for the duration of the procedure step, and they temporarily override any permanent labels associated with the variables.
