A.5 Viewing Your Graphs in the SAS Windowing Environment

The mechanism for viewing graphics created with ODS can vary depending on your operating system, which viewers are installed on your computer, and the ODS destination you have selected. If you do not specify an ODS destination, then the LISTING destination is used by default. If you are using the SAS windowing environment, go to the Results window and find the icon for the corresponding graph. You can double-click the graph icon to display the graph in the default viewer that is configured on your computer for the corresponding image file type.

If you are using the SAS windowing environment and you specify an HTML destination, then the results are displayed by default in the SAS Results window as they are being generated. Depending on your configuration, this statement can also apply to the PDF and RTF destinations. If you are using the LATEX or the PS destinations, you must use a PostScript viewer, such as GSview. For information about the windowing environment in a different operating system, see the SAS Companion for that operating system.
