Configuring Drill-Down Links with ACTIVEX
ActiveX parameters are used to implement drill-down functionality and to configure interactive features. The purpose and syntax of these parameters are defined in Parameter Reference for Java and ActiveX on page 424.
In the ODS HTML statement, ActiveX parameters are specified with the PARAMETERS= option, as described in Specifying Parameters and Attributes for Java and ActiveX on page 421.
The SAS/GRAPH Control for ActiveX enables three drill-down modes for charts and maps. Drill-down functionality is not enabled for contour plots. The three drill-down modes are URL, HTML, and Script. These modes are implemented in ActiveX in the same way that they are implemented in Java. For information on implementing these drill-down modes, see Configuring Drill-Down Links for Java and ActiveX on page 400. To convert the Java examples to ActiveX, simply change the GOPTIONS statement from DEVICE=JAVA to DEVICE=ACTIVEX.
The following table lists the procedures and statements whose output can be used in ActiveX presentations with drill-down functionality.
| Procedure | Statements |
|---|---|
| GCHART | HBAR, HBAR3D, VBAR, VBAR3D, PIE, PIE3D, DONUT |
| GPLOT | PLOT, BUBBLE, BUBBLE2, PLOT2 |
| GMAP | CHORO, BLOCK, PRISM |
| G3D | PLOT, SCATTER |
