ODS Graphics

Before you create ODS Graphics output, ODS Graphics must be enabled (for example, with the ODS GRAPHICS ON statement). For more information about enabling and disabling ODS Graphics, see the section "Enabling and Disabling ODS Graphics" in Chapter 21, Statistical Graphics Using ODS (SAS/STAT User's Guide).

The appearance of a graph produced with ODS Graphics is determined by the style associated with the ODS destination where the graph is produced. CDFPLOT options used to control the appearance of traditional graphics are ignored for ODS Graphics output.

When ODS Graphics is in effect, the CDFPLOT statement assigns a name to the graph it creates. You can use this name to reference the graph when using ODS. The name is listed in Table 5.12.
