Chapter 8: Graphics Options and Device Parameters Dictionary

Introduction

This chapter provides a detailed description of all of the graphics options and device parameters used with SAS/GRAPH software. These include

• all graphics options used by the GOPTIONS statement

• all device parameters that can be specified as options in the ADD and MODIFY statements in the GDEVICE procedure

• all device parameters that appear as fields in the GDEVICE windows .

The descriptions provide the syntax, defaults, and required information for each option and parameter.

The graphics options and device parameters are intermixed and listed alphabetically . When the graphics option and device parameter have the same name, they are discussed in the same dictionary entry and the description uses only that name and does not distinguish between the option and the parameter except where the distinction is necessary.

For a list of all the graphics options, see GOPTIONS Statement on page 146. For a list of all the device parameters, see ADD Statement on page 921.

If the syntax for the graphics option and the device parameter is different, both forms are shown. If the syntax is the same, one form is shown.
