In earlier releases of SAS/QC software, graphical features (such as colors and line types) of specification lines, histogram bars, and fitted curves were controlled with options in SYMBOL and PATTERN statements when producing traditional graphics. These options are still supported, although they have been superseded by options in the HISTOGRAM and SPEC statements. The following tables summarize the two sets of options. Note: These statements have no effect on ODS Graphics output.
