Working in the SAS Windowing Environment

Introduction to Working in the SAS Windowing Environment

SAS for OpenVMS operating environments features an X Window System interface that is based on Motif. This interface uses the window manager on your system to manage the windows on your display. The appearance of the SAS interface depends partially on which window manager you use.

Many features of the SAS windowing environment are controlled by X resources. For example, colors, window sizes, the appearance of the SAS ToolBox, and key definitions are all controlled through X resources. Customizing the SAS Windowing Environment provides general information about resources, such as how to specify resources, and describes all of the resources that you can use to customize the interface.

Note: The About SAS System dialog box displays version information about SAS, your operating environment, and Motif. You can display the About SAS System dialog box by selecting Help About SAS System. [cautionend]
