Image output issues

[YoloY]

I specified the output path for the image, but the image was not saved in the file where I wanted to save it.

ods listing gpath="E:\程序" image_dpi=300 style=Journal;
ods graphics / imagename="Figure1" outputfmt=tiff width=10cm height=8cm border=off;
PROC TRAJ DATA=men OUT=out OUTPLOT=OP OUTSTAT=OS OUTEST=OE; 
id pe_id;
VAR var1 var2 var3; 
INDEP T1-T3; 
MODEL CNORM;
MIN 0; 
MAX 100; 
NGROUPS 1;
ORDER 4; 
RUN;
%trajplot(op, os ,"Men","Group 1","var","Exposure period (year)");
ods graphics off;

The log should where the images were sent. Can you show us the LOG from running the code to see if we can make a suggestion.

Thank you! The LOG from running the code as follows:

I suspected this might be related to Proc Traj not being a SAS product and I think I am correct.

This line in the log

NOTE: 有 15884 个字节写入“C:\Users\hp\AppData\Local\Temp\SAS Temporary
Files\_TD14256_DESKTOP-O52JTF6_\gplot1.png”。

indicates that the file was created by Proc Gplot as Gplot1 is default first image file name created. The older graphs procs such as GPLOT do not use/recognize the GPATH setting which is for ODS graphics.

You would use the GOPTIONS statement to set properties for the graphs.

You would use something like this before executing the code that generates the plot.

filename graphout "E:\程序\Figure1.png";
goptions gsfname=graphout gsfmode=replace;

Caution: I have no idea what may be buried in the code for that %Trajplot macro. There may be GOPTIONS that will override the above.

So if you still do not get output in the expected file then turn on the OPTIONS MPRINT; before running the macro so you can see the code generated in the macro to see if it is setting GOPTIONS that are overriding yours. There might be documentation in the macro for setting the desired options.

Your answer is very useful. Thank you very much.
