GSET Functions

GSET functions allow you to set attributes for the graphics elements. Some GSET functions set the attributes for a subset of graphics primitives. Attributes prefixed by FIL control the appearance of the graphics primitives GDRAW('BAR', . . . ), GDRAW('ELLIPSE', . . . ), GDRAW('FILL', . . . ), and GDRAW('PIE', . . . ). See DATA Step Graphics Interface Routines for a complete list of the attributes that control the appearance of the graphics primitives.

Some GSET functions affect the appearance of the entire graphics output. GSET('HPOS', . . . ) and GSET('VPOS', . . . ) set the number of columns and rows for the output. See each GSET function for the aspect of the graphics output it controls.

When using GSET functions, remember the following:

All arguments must be specified.
All arguments are specified as variables or constants. If you express an argument as a variable, the variable must be initialized.
All character arguments that are expressed as character strings must be enclosed in quotation marks.
All character variable names used as arguments must be declared in a LENGTH statement.
All character constants must be enclosed in single or double quotation marks.
