Syntax

CTEXT=text-color

text-color: specifies any SAS/GRAPH color name. See SAS/GRAPH Colors and Images for information about specifying colors.

Details

The CTITLE= graphics option overrides CTEXT= for all titles, notes, and footnotes, as well as the border. Any other color specifications for text in SAS statements also override the value of the CTEXT= graphics option.

Note: When you use ODS to send graphics to an HTML destination, and titles and footnotes are rendered as part of the HTML body file instead of the graphic image, you must specify the ODS USEGOPT statement for this option to work. See Using Graphics Options with ODS (USEGOPT) for more information. [cautionend]
