n Tables and graphs are displayed together in the HTML results viewer window. Prior
to SAS 9.3, tables and graphs were displayed separately in the Output and Graph
windows.
n Graphs are no longer saved in the current SAS directory by default. Instead, they
are saved in the directory that corresponds to your SAS Work library. Hence, by
default, graphs are automatically deleted at the end of your SAS session. You can
specify a different directory in your SAS preferences.
To change the defaults:
1 In the SAS Display Manager, select Tools � Options � Preferences. The
Preferences dialog box appears.
2 Click the Results tab.
3 From the Style drop-down list, select a new style.
4 Select LISTING or HTML as the default destination.
5 Disable or enable ODS Graphics by selecting the check box.
6 Change the directory where graphs are saved.
ODS Graphics Designer
The ODS Graphics Designer is now part of Base SAS software. SAS/GRAPH is not
required in order to use the designer. The documentation has also moved to the Base
SAS node in SAS Help and Documentation.
The first production release of ODS Graphics Designer was in the third maintenance
release for SAS 9.2. If you are migrating from the third maintenance release for SAS
9.2, here are other changes that you need to consider:
n If you customized preferences, styles, or Graph Gallery files in the previous
production release, you must migrate your custom files to the new location for the
ODS Graphics Designer. If you do not perform this one-time task, the ODS Graphics
Designer in SAS 9.3 will not be able to use your customized preferences, styles, or
Graph Gallery files. For instructions, see “Manual Tasks for Upgrading to SAS 9.3
