I'm using a saved template to do a multi-panel, multi-variable error bar graph. Since there are multiple bars per category, the default axis label for the error bars is "95%". Previously, I could edit that text but in V. 20 I cannot select or edit that axis label in the graph editor.
I assume I could specify the label in syntax, but am unable to find a clear example of where to insert "LABEL=varname" for these legacy graphs. Suggestion appreciated! Here's the syntax (pasted) DATASET ACTIVATE DataSet3. GRAPH /ERRORBAR(CI 95)=ca1of18pops ca2of18pops ca3of18pops BY community /PANEL COLVAR=sex COLOP=CROSS ROWVAR=Agegroup ROWOP=CROSS /TEMPLATE='4bar95-CAscores.sgt' /MISSING=LISTWISE. thanks in advance for any pointers, Ian Martin Ian D.

Can you tab to it in the editor? Try selecting the x-axis label and then
tabbing. Alternatively, you could create the chart with GGRAPH and directly specify the label in the GPL? A third approach would to create another simple chart, edit that label and save the change in another template. You can apply that template to the chart with the chart editor to see if it works. I'm not sure if GRAPH supports multiple templates in syntax. -----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of Ian Martin Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 8:43 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: version 20 can't select/edit y-axis label I'm using a saved template to do a multi-panel, multi-variable error bar graph.

Thanks ViAnn.
I was able to tab to the Y-axis title to select it, but still it cannot be edited. In the end, I de-selected the option to label the axis, and added a text box. Not too elegant. Is it not possible to title the Y-axis of a multi-variable panelled error bar chart in syntax? regards, Ian On Feb 14, 2012, at 11:08 AM, ViAnn Beadle wrote: > Can you tab to it in the editor?

I don't know the answer to your question. I rarely use the GRAPH command
because I much prefer the flexibility and power of GPL. Is this new behavior in 20? Have you tried to do without your template applied. -----Original Message----- From: Ian Martin [mailto:[hidden email]] Sent: Tuesday, February 14, 2012 12:39 PM To: ViAnn Beadle; [hidden email] Subject: Re: version 20 can't select/edit y-axis label Thanks ViAnn.
