Hi,

 

I'm trying to make a vertical bar chart and have 5minute data for a day
(the x-axis values are datetime values, and have a value every 5min
starting at midnight).  I want every 5min bar charted on the output, but
I want a label only on every hour (otherwise the axis labels become too
cluttered).  I've been fiddling with all of the options I can think of
to make this work, but to no avail.  I know that in PROC GPLOT that when
you have date/time/datetime values on the x-axis, SAS does a better job
of formatting them and one has better control over the spacing of major
tick labels.  Does anybody have any suggestions or solutions?

 

Thanks,
Matt
