GOPTIONS: ERASE | NOERASE

GDEVICE: ERASE=Y | N

ERASE ERASE=Y: causes the graph to be erased when you press RETURN after the graph has been displayed.
NOERASE ERASE=N: causes the graph to remain on the display when you press RETURN after the graph has been displayed. A blank Erase field in the Parameters window is the same as ERASE=N.

Details

ERASE is useful for those devices that overlay the graphics area and the message area - that is, those devices that have separate dialog and graphics areas. On other devices, the graph is erased.
