How to Save Out PLOT from PROC SGPLOT into A PIC FILE with explicit filename and location?!

[hellohere]

I am running macro gernerating PLOTS from PROC SGPLOT, and need 

save the plots out with explicit filename/location.

How ? Any Help?

The code below seems generated the file somewhere. But I cannot find anywhere.

If put dir path, it complains. 

25813  %let plotvar=vol_dif_wt_csum;
25814  title "var=&plotvar.";
25815      ods layout gridded columns=2 rows=2 advance=table;
25816      ods graphics /width=600px height=400px   imagename="_TEST_"  outputfmt=png ;
25817      proc sgplot data=_index_avg_cmp_f_4grp(where=( ind between &endind. -1000 and
25817! &endind.+100));
25818              by  blw_flag abv_flag;
25819              series x=ind y=&plotvar. /  lineattrs=( color=blue thickness=2 pattern=solid);
25820              series x=ind y=&indexout._orig / y2axis   lineattrs=( color=red thickness=2
25820! pattern=solid);
25821              refline  &endind./axis=x lineattrs=(color=blue thickness=2 pattern=solid);
25822              refline  &refind./axis=x lineattrs=(color=lime thickness=1 pattern=solid);
25823      run;

Hardly possible to suggest something useful without knowing the code of the macro.

The ods gpath option may be used to set the location images are stored, see https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/9.4_3.5/grstatug/p0cmojsdkiab8cn1k2qk3rp3a8s0.htm for details.

My code generates 2*2 plot. How to Save the 2*2 into  one file?! Thanks,

Check this:

https://blogs.sas.com/content/graphicallyspeaking/2022/09/10/complex-layouts-using-the-sg-procedures...

ods _all_ close;
options nodate nonumber;
options leftmargin="0.001in" rightmargin="0.001in";
options papersize=(7.35in 3.00in);

title "Sales Dashboard";
ods printer printer=png300 file="dashboard.png" style=normalprinter;

Thanks.  But still have issue. 

The picture is saved out. But only one out of n-by-M.

data _temp;
do grp1=1 to 3;
	do grp2=1 to 3;
		do ind=1 to 100;
			y=grp1*10+grp2+sin(ind/10); output;
		end;
	end;
end;
run;quit;

ods _all_ close;
options nodate nonumber;
options leftmargin="0.001in" rightmargin="0.001in";
options papersize=(7.35in 3.00in);

ods printer printer=png300 file="dashboard.png" style=normalprinter; 
	proc sgplot data=_temp;
			by grp1 grp2;
			series x=ind y=y/  lineattrs=( color=red thickness=2 pattern=solid);  
	run;quit; 

Even just the code from the link. It does not show up right. 

data heart;
set sashelp.heart;
if (weight_status eq '') then weight_status="Unknown";
run;
proc sort data=heart; by weight_status; run;

ods printer printer=png300 file="bygroups.png" style=normalprinter;
ods layout gridded columns=2 rows=2 advance=bygroup
    column_gutter=0.1in row_gutter=0.1in;
ods graphics / width=3.5in;
title "#byval1";
proc sgplot data=heart noautolegend uniform=xscale;
by weight_status;
yaxis offsetmin=0.05;
histogram cholesterol;
density cholesterol;
fringe cholesterol;
run;
ods layout end;
ods printer close;

😓 This ?

data _temp;
do grp1=1 to 3;
	do grp2=1 to 3;
		do ind=1 to 100;
			y=grp1*10+grp2+sin(ind/10); output;
		end;
	end;
end;
run;

title;
ods _all_ close;
options nodate nonumber ;
options leftmargin="0.001in" rightmargin="0.001in" topmargin=1cm;
options papersize=(10.00in 8.50in);

ods printer printer=png300 file="c:\temp\dashboard.png" style=normalprinter nogtitle; 

ods layout gridded columns=3 advance=bygroup column_gutter=0.1in row_gutter=0.1in;
ods graphics / width=3.00in noborder ;
		proc sgplot data=_temp;
			by grp1 grp2;
			series x=ind y=y/  lineattrs=( color=red thickness=2 pattern=solid);  
	run;quit; 

ods layout end;
ods printer close;

Thanks. This is IT.
