Ploticus Gallery - Legends
This page contains some examples of legends,
illustrating the available varieties and options.
These examples all use ploticus's
proc legend.
Example 1
km
A legend can display samples of lines, colors, and symbols.
This legend includes line and color samples. The usual procedure
for building a legend is to include a legendlabel attribute
with each plotting proc, then display the accumulated set
using proc legend.
Example 2
lineplot5
In this example, the legend entries go across, rather than down.
Example 3
propbars1
A two-column legend. Proc legend is invoked twice, using the
specifyorder attribute to select entries.
Example 4
scatterplot3
An example with symbols containing characters.
Example 5
scatterplot3a
In this example, the legend is built by defining entries explicitly
invoking proc legendentry once per entry. The legend is rendered
using proc legend.
Example 6
hbars3
This example uses a single line of entries with some multi-line labels.
