Device-based graphics
are all
SAS/GRAPH output where there is a user-specified or default
device (DEVICE= option) that controls certain aspects of the graphical
output. Supplied device drivers are stored in the Sashelp.Devices
catalog. Examples of devices drivers are SASPRTC, GIF, WIN, ACTIVEX,
PDF, and SVG. Common
SAS/GRAPH procedures that produce device-based
graphics are GPLOT, GCHART, and GMAP. Most device-based graphics produce
a GRSEG catalog entry as output and use the GOPTIONS statement to
control the graphical environment.
For complete
documentation on the style attributes that can be specified in each
style element, see Style Attributes Overview.
Note: These style elements affect
device-based graphics only when the GSTYLE system option is in effect
(this is the default for SAS 9.2). If the NOGSTYLE system option is
specified, graphs do not use any style information. For more information
about the GSTYLE system option, see
SAS System Options: Reference.
