ODS Layout different border lines

[qiaohao]

Hi,

In Ods Layout and Ods Region, we can specify the border style using style={borderstyle=solid, bordercolor=blue}. This will produce the same solid blue border lines. But I want to have different border lines, for example, I only need the top border line, but not the left/right/bottom border lines. I tried using borderTopStyle/borderTopColor, but it does not work. It seems that the Top/Bottom/Left/Right style specification only works on a cell, but not on layout and region.

Is there any way to specify different border lines for layout and region area?

ps, my output will be in PDF file.

I tried using borderTopStyle/borderTopColor, but it does not work. I would expect that to work, basically set the other styles to white to have 'invisible' borders.

Please show what you've tried.

Here is what I tried:

ods _all_ close;
ods pdf file="test_borders.pdf";
  ods layout start style={bordercolor=red borderstyle=solid borderwidth=1pt};
    ods region x=1pct y=2pct;
    proc print data=sashelp.cars(obs=10);
    run;
  ods layout end;
ods pdf close;

ods pdf file="test_borders2.pdf";
  ods layout start style={borderleftcolor=red borderleftstyle=solid borderleftwidth=1pt};
    ods region x=1pct y=2pct;
    proc print data=sashelp.cars(obs=10);
    run;
  ods layout end;
ods pdf close;

The first output has red colored borders, but the second output does not have the intended left border.

Thanks!
