Annotate Dictionary Overview
The Annotate facility enables you to generate a special data set of graphics commands from which you can produce graphics output. This data set is referred to as an Annotate data set. You can generate a complete graph using an Annotate data set in conjunction with The GANNO Procedure or The GSLIDE Procedure, or you can apply an Annotate data set to graphics that were generated with procedures such as The GCHART Procedure, The GCONTOUR Procedure, and The GMAP Procedure, among others.
In addition, SAS/GRAPH supports the following procedures with the Java or ActiveX devices: GCHART, GCONTOUR, GMAP, GPLOT, GRADAR, and G3D.
In an Annotate data set, each observation represents a command to draw a graphics element or perform an action. The observations use a set of predefined Annotate Variables. Annotate Functions determine what is to be done with each observation. Annotate Macros simplify the process of drawing a graphics element. Annotate Error Messages are sent to the SAS log.
For usage information and example programs , refer to Using Annotate Macros and Using Annotate Data Sets.
