Overview

This paper covers the key functionalities that have been added to SAS/GRAPH 9.2. Highlights include integration of styles with current SAS/GRAPH procedures; new SAS/GRAPH statistical graphics procedures such as SGPlot, SGScatter, and SGPanel; Graph Template Language (GTL) that can be rendered using the SGRender procedure; GKPI and GTILE procedures; Network Visualization Workshop; new device drivers such as Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG); a new set of TrueType fonts that are shipped as part of SAS; support for more than 256 colors for the devices that support them; several new map data sets; and much more. In addition, integration of Output Delivery System (ODS) with graph procedures has been improved to automatically pick the best device and size based on the output destination.
