Overview of Configuring SAS/IML Studio

You can configure many aspects of SAS/IML Studio, including the following:

  • the appearance of GUI items, such as toolbars

  • the behavior of the program editor

  • the default SAS server

  • the default positions of SAS/IML Studio windows, such as graphs, data tables, and output documents

  • the directories that SAS/IML Studio searches when trying to locate Java classes, data files, matrices, and modules

  • the location of your personal files directory

This chapter describes configuring SAS/IML Studio by using the Options dialog box. You can open the Options dialog box by selecting Tools →Options from the main menu.

If you change options in the Options dialog box, the changes apply to all workspaces. Some changes affect only new workspaces.
