The CAPABILITY Procedure

Dictionary of Options

The following entries provide detailed descriptions of options for the SPEC statement. The notes Traditional Graphics, ODS Graphics, and Line Printer identify options that can be used with traditional graphics, ODS Graphics output, and line printer plots, respectively.

CLEFT=color
CLEFT

[Traditional Graphics][ODS Graphics] determines the color used to fill the area under a histogram to the left of the lower specification limit. You can specify the CLEFT option without an argument to fill this area with an appropriate color from the ODS style. If you are producing ODS Graphics output, an explicit color specification is ignored. This option is applicable only when the SPEC statement is used in conjunction with a HISTOGRAM or COMPHISTOGRAM statement. See Output 5.2.1 for an example. The CLEFT= option also applies to the area under a fitted curve;for an example, see Output 5.8.1.

CLSL=color

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the color of the lower specification line displayed in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements.

CRIGHT=color
CRIGHT

[Traditional Graphics][ODS Graphics] determines the color used to fill the area under a histogram to the right of the upper specification limit. You can specify the CRIGHT option without an argument to fill this area with an appropriate color from the ODS style. If you are producing ODS Graphics output, an explicit color specification is ignored. This option is applicable only when the SPEC statement is used in conjunction with a HISTOGRAM or COMPHISTOGRAM statement. See Output 5.2.1 for an example. The CRIGHT= option also applies to the area under a fitted curve; for an example, see Output 5.8.1.

CTARGET=color

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the color of the target line displayed in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements.

CUSL=color

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the color of the upper specification line displayed in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements.

LLSL=linetype

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the line type for the lower specification line displayed in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an example. The default is 1, which produces a solid line.

LSL=value-list

specifies the lower specification limits for the variables listed in the VAR statement, or for all numeric variables in the input data set if no VAR statement is used. If you specify only one lower limit, it is used for all of the variables; otherwise, the number of limits must match the number of variables. See the section Computing Capability Indices for an example.

LSLSYMBOL=’character

[Line Printer] specifies the character used to display the lower specification line in line printer plots created with the CDFPLOT, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. The default character is 'L'.

LTARGET=linetype

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the line type for the target line in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an example. The default is 1, which produces a solid line.

LUSL=linetype

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the line type for the upper specification line displayed in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an example. The default is 1, which produces a solid line.

PLEFT=pattern

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the pattern used to fill the area under a histogram to the left of the lower specification limit. This option is applicable only when the SPEC statement is used in conjunction with a HISTOGRAM or COMPHISTOGRAM statement. For an example, see Output 5.2.1. The PLEFT= option also applies to the area under a fitted curve; for an example, see Output 5.8.1. The default pattern is a solid fill.

PRIGHT=pattern

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the pattern used to fill the area under a histogram to the right of the upper specification limit. This option is applicable only when the SPEC statement is used in conjunction with a HISTOGRAM or COMPHISTOGRAM statement. For an example, see Output 5.2.1. The PRIGHT= option also applies to the area under a fitted curve; for an example, see Output 5.8.1. The default pattern is a solid fill.

TARGET=value-list

specifies a target values for the variables listed in the VAR statement, or for all numeric variables in the input data set if no VAR statement is used. If you specify only one target value, it is used for all of the variables; otherwise, the number of values must match the number of variables. See the section Computing Capability Indices for an example.

TARGETSYMBOL='character'
TARGETSYM='character'

[Line Printer] specifies the character used to display the target line in line printer plots created with the CDFPLOT, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. The default character is 'T'.

USL=value-list

specifies the upper specification limits for the variables listed in the VAR statement, or for all numeric variables in the input data set if no VAR statement is used. If you specify only one upper limit, it is used for all of the variables; otherwise, the number of limits must match the number of variables. See the section Computing Capability Indices for an example.

USLSYMBOL='character'

[Line Printer] specifies the character used to display the upper specification line in line printer plots created with the CDFPLOT, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. The default character is 'U'.

WLSL=

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the width in pixels of the lower specification line in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an illustration. The default is 1.

WTARGET=

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the width in pixels of the target line in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an illustration. The default is 1.

WUSL=

[Traditional Graphics] specifies the width in pixels of the upper specification line in plots created with the CDFPLOT, COMPHISTOGRAM, HISTOGRAM, PROBPLOT, and QQPLOT statements. See Output 5.2.1 for an illustration. The default is 1.
