Syntax

CBORDER='color' | 'CTEXT';

color

specifies the color that fills the box. The color value can be any SAS/GRAPH color name. See SAS/GRAPH Colors and Images for more information about specifying colors.

Specifying a null value for the color value (CBOX=' ') cancels the CBOX variable.

CTEXT

draws the border in the same color as the text or symbol. The text color is determined by (1) the COLOR variable or (2) the CTEXT=graphics option or (3) the first color in the color list.


Functions

You can use the CBORDER variable with these functions:

LABEL
SYMBOL

Details

Once you have specified CBORDER, it remains in effect for all subsequent observations that use the LABEL or SYMBOL function and draws a border around all text or symbols. To turn off the border for subsequent text or symbols, specify CBORDER=' '.

To fill the area defined by CBORDER, use the CBOX variable in conjunction with CBORDER.
