The ODS Graphics Editor is a complementary tool in the ODS graphics system. It is an interactive graphical application used to edit and annotate ODS graphics that are created by SAS procedures. You can save the results as an image for inclusion in a report or as an SGE file that you can edit in the future.

You launch the editor from a SAS session. You can also download a stand-alone version of the ODS Graphics Editor that runs apart from SAS. When you edit a graph from the Results window in SAS, changes that you make do not affect the original graph in the Results window.
