Syntax |
FUNCTION='function-name'; |
specifies the name of an Annotate function. The function-name value can be any of the following.
BAR | |
CNTL2TXT, DRAW2TXT |
copies (XLAST, YLAST) to (XLSTT, YLSTT), overwriting the previous values of (XLSTT, YLSTT). |
COMMENT |
places comments in your data set. The observation is ignored when the data set is processed. |
DEBUG |
writes the values of all Annotate variables to the SAS log before and after the next observation. |
DRAW | |
FRAME |
draws a border around the area defined by XSYS and YSYS and specifies a background color for the framed area . |
IMAGE |
displays an image in the graphics output from the current (X,Y) coordinates to the coordinates that are associated with the IMGPATH variable. |
LABEL | |
MOVE | |
PIE | |
PIECNTR |
sets new center and radius values. The PIEXY function can use this information in a later observation. |
PIEXY |
returns the coordinates of a point on a pie slice. Other functions can use this information in a later observation. |
POINT | |
POLY |
begins drawing a polygon (first vertex). Use the POLYCONT function in successive observations to supply the remaining vertices. |
POLYCONT | |
POP |
gets values from the LIFO stack and changes the current value of (XLAST, YLAST) and (XLSTT, YLSTT) to those values. |
PUSH |
puts the current values for (XLAST, YLAST) and (XLSTT, YLSTT) in the LIFO stack. |
SWAP | |
SYMBOL |
draws a symbol. See Special Symbols for Plotting Data Points for a list of the symbols. |
TXT2CNTL |
copies the values (XLSTT, YLSTT) to (XLAST, YLAST), overwriting the previous values of (XLAST, YLAST). |
All other variables in the observation that contain the function act as parameters for the action. For a detailed description of each function and the Annotate variables that can be used in conjunction with it, see Annotate Functions.
