The GANTT Procedure

Mode-Specific Differences

All the options that are valid for line-printer, full-screen, and graphics mode Gantt charts are explained in detail in the "Syntax: GANTT Procedure" section. With few exceptions, the options listed in the section "General Options" have the same interpretation in all three modes.

Table 6.27 lists those line-printer options that have a different interpretation for the graphics version of PROC GANTT. Table 6.28 lists options specific for graphics charts and the equivalent line-printer/full-screen option. Table 6.29 lists options specific for line-printer and full-screen charts and the equivalent graphics option.

Table 6.27: Line-Printer Options and Corresponding Graphics Interpretation

Line-Printer Option	Graphics Mode Interpretation
SCALE=scale	one column is denoted by (1/h)% of the screen width, where HPOS=h.
SKIP=skip	skip number of bar heights are skipped between the bars for two consecutive activities. The value 0 is not valid in the graphics case.
