Save Graph Output

Save is disabled if you cannot write to the open file. You cannot write over the files that were created by SAS or files that are write-protected.
To save graph output:
  1. Select Filethen selectSave As from the menu.
  2. Select the directory where you want the graph to be saved.
  3. Select the type of file to save.
    If you save the file in SGE format, then you can later open and edit the file.
    If you save the file in PNG format, then the graph is saved as a flat image. You can change the resolution by modifying the dots per inches (DPI). The graph in this format cannot be edited, though it can be annotated.
  4. Enter the name of the graph in the File name field.
    When you edit a graph from the SAS Results window, the ODS Graphics Editor creates and opens a file with an .sge extension. The exact name depends on how the graph was created. If you save your graph as an SGE file, you cannot save the graph to its default filename and location.
  5. Click Save.
The Save operation does not affect the graph output in the Results window in SAS. In addition, running the same program overwrites the output in the Results window.
