The GSLIDE Procedure

Overview

The GSLIDE procedure produces graphics output that consists of text and straight lines that are generated by TITLE, FOOTNOTE, and NOTE statements. In addition, the procedure provides an easy way to add titles, notes, and footnotes to output that is produced entirely with an Annotate data set.

The GSLIDE procedure is useful for creating text slides for presentations. You can also overlay text slides on other graphics output with the GREPLAY procedure.

About Text Slides

Text slides contain text and graphics that are generated by SAS/GRAPH statements. To display an external text file as graphics output, use the GPRINT procedure.

About Annotate Output

Annotate output is generated by commands that are stored in an Annotate data set. Use the GSLIDE procedure to display Annotate output when you want to include TITLE and FOOTNOTE statements on the output and use certain graphics options such as BORDER. To display Annotate graphics without these, use the GANNO procedure. See The Annotate Data Set for more information on creating and displaying Annotate data sets.

Output from an Annotate Data Set Displayed with the GSLIDE Procedure (GR27N02) shows output from an Annotate data set that is displayed with titles and footnotes that were generated by TITLE and FOOTNOTE statements.
