TEMPLATE Procedure: ODS Graphics Overview (Experimental)

ODS Graphics Statements by Category

ODS statistical graph definitions contain statements that specify plot layouts (such as grids or overlays), plot types (such as scatter plots and histograms), and text elements (such as titles, footnotes, and insets). Also, the definitions provide support for computations (such as histogram binning) and evaluation of expressions. Options are available to specify colors, marker symbols, and other attributes of plot features.

ODS statistical graph definitions begin with a DEFINE STATGRAPH statement in PROC TEMPLATE, and the definitions end with an END statement. The following table lists and describes the categories of statements used in the DEFINE STATGRAPH definition block that create and modify ODS Graphics.
