SVGWIDTH= number-of-units<unit-of-measure> | "" | "

Syntax Description

number-of-units

specifies the width as a number of unit-of-measure.

Requirement:	number-of- units must be a positive integer value.
Interaction:	If number-of- units is a negative number, the SVG document is not rendered by the browser.

unit-of-measure

specifies the unit of measurement, which can be one of the following:

%	percentage
cm	centimeters
em	the height of the element's font
ex	the height of the letter x
in	inches
mm	millimeters
pc	picas
pt	points
px	pixels

Default:

"" | "

specifies to reset the width to the default value of 800 pixels.

Requirement:

Use two double quotation marks or two single quotation marks with no space between them.

Details

For embedded <svg> elements, the SVGWIDTH= option specifies the width of the rectangular region into which the <svg> element is placed. The SVG output is scaled to fit the viewBox if SVGWIDTH="100%".

If the SVGWIDTH= option is not specified, the width attribute on the <svg> element is not set, which effectively provides full scalability by using a width of 100%.

The value for the SVGWIDTH= option can be specified without delimiters, enclosed in single or double quotation marks, or enclosed in parentheses.

Examples

The following OPTIONS statement specifies to size the SVG output to portrait letter-sized and to scale the output to 100% of the viewport:

options printerpath=svg orientation=portrait svgheight="100%" svgwidth="100%" 
        papersize=letter;

By using these option values, SAS creates the following <svg> element:

<svg> xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" 
      xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" 
      xml:space="preserve" 
      onload='Init(evt)' version="1.1" 
      width="100%" height="100%" 
      viewBox="0 0 850 1100" 
</svg>

The value of "100%" in the SVGWIDTH= option specifies to scale the SVG output width to 100% of the viewport, which is based on the value of the PAPERSIZE= option. The paper size is letter in the portrait orientation, which has a width of 8.5" at 96 dpi.
