SAS/GRAPH
| Support for ODS Styles |
All SAS/GRAPH procedures and devices now support ODS styles. By default, all colors and fonts are derived from the current style. Procedure statement options and SAS/GRAPH GOPTIONS override individual elements of the style, so you can easily customize the appearance of any graph. The use of ODS styles by default is controlled by the GSTYLE system option. For more information, see "Controlling the Appearance of Your Graphs" in SAS/GRAPH: Reference, Second Edition and "GSTYLE System Option" in SAS Language Reference: Dictionary.
| Default Device Driver for the HTML Destination |
The default device driver for the ODS HTML destination has changed from GIF to PNG, which provides TrueColor support. Using the PNG device might result in graphs that have spacing or size differences, such as slightly narrower bars in bar charts.
| Support for Multiple Open ODS Destinations |
If you have multiple ODS destinations open, SAS/GRAPH automatically selects an appropriate device for each destination. In addition, each graph uses the ODS style associated with each destination. You do not need to specify a device or style to get optimal results. For example, if you do not specify a device or style and the HTML destination is open, then SAS/GRAPH automatically selects the PNG device and STYLES.DEFAULT for output sent to the HTML destination. For more information, see "Generating Output with SAS/GRAPH Procedures" in SAS/GRAPH: Reference, Second Edition.
| Multiple Open Destinations and GRSEGs |
If multiple ODS destinations are open and you are using a device other than the Java or ActiveX devices (ACTIVEX, JAVA, ACTXIMG, or JAVAIMG), a different GRSEG is created for each open destination. The GRSEGs for the first destination are stored in WORK.GSEG. The GRSEGs for any other open destinations are stored in catalogs named according to the destinations, for example, WORK.HTML. If your application is replaying GRSEGs in WORK.GSEG, you might need to modify the catalog name.
| Fonts and Font Rendering |
Fonts are now rendered using the FreeType engine. This new font rendering might result in fonts appearing larger than they did in previous versions of SAS/GRAPH. For more information, see "Specifying Fonts in SAS/GRAPH Programs" in SAS/GRAPH: Reference, Second Edition.
| Updated Map Data Sets |
Many of the map data sets in the MAPS library have been updated with new variables and additional detail. Also, ID numbers and province names have changed in many data sets. You might need to change your response data in existing SAS programs that use these data sets. For more information, see "Updated Map Data Sets" in SAS/GRAPH: Reference, Second Edition.
