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 section Syntax: GANTT Procedure. With few exceptions, the options listed in the section General Options have the same interpretation in all three modes.

Table 8.27 lists those line-printer options that have a different interpretation for the graphics version of PROC GANTT. Table 8.28 lists options specific for graphics charts and the equivalent line-printer/full-screen option. Table 8.29 lists options specific for line-printer and full-screen charts and the equivalent graphics option.
