GSET functions enable
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.
