The SUB and SUP text commands used with the Graph Template Language (GTL) do not resolve to subscript and superscript values, respectively, when specified as dynamic variables. Dynamic variables are not handled at compile time and therefore they do not resolve.

These text commands can be used in macro definitions. Please see the sample code in the Full Code section for an illustration of the syntax.

The SUB and SUP text commands used with the Graph Template Language (GTL) do not resolve to subscript and superscript values, respectively, when specified as dynamic variables. Dynamic variables are not handled at compile time and therefore they do not resolve.

These text commands can be used in macro definitions. The code below illustrates this.

title;
%let sup={sup '7'};
%let sub={sub '7'};

proc template;
   define statgraph superscript;
   begingraph;
     mvar sub sup;
     entrytitle "Superscript" textattrs=(size=8pt) ⊃
     entryfootnote "Subscript" textattrs=(size=8pt) ⊂
     layout overlay;
        scatterplot x=age y=height;
     endlayout;
   endgraph;
   end;
run;

proc template;                                                                                                                          
   define style unifonts;
