I'm working on a macro that has to suppress some of its output using ods rtf exclude all; Under the assumption that the user was outputting to rtf (default user behavior for us), once this piece of the macro is done, it turns output back on using ods rtf select all; However, there are some use cases where the user was suppressing the printout of my macro outputs.  In this case, I'd like my code to determine what ods output the user had selected and return to that after the excluded portion of macro code runs.  Is there a sashelp/dictionary table that contains this information?  I've already looked through vstyle, voption,  vallopt, vrememb and didn't see anything specific that told me which state to revert to. ...

I'm trying to use proc template to create a template with a bunch of dynamic variables.  Those variables work fine when I use them in most places, but when I try to use one in tickdisplaylist=(<DYNAMIC VARIABLE HERE>), it errors out and tells me it's expected a quoted string.  In my sgrender call, I've tried quoting, not-quoting, embedding all of my quoted labels inside one big set of quotes, etc, but have not had success getting proc template to use my dynamic variable inside this option.  Does anyone have any thoughts?     define statgraph GRPHNM; dynamic PLOT1_VISITS PLOT_UNIT PLOT1_YVAL PLOT1_XVAL PLOT2_YVAL PLOT_GROUPS; begingraph / datacolors = (&CLRSCALE) datacontrastcolors = (&CLRSCALE_CON.); /*entrytitle "Test plot for &PARMTOPLOT";*/ layout lattice / rows = 1 columns = 2 rowgutter = 0 columngutter = 2 columnweights = (0.66 0.34); /*** Standard plot ***/ layout overlay / xaxisopts=(linearopts=( viewmin = -2.5 viewmax = 26.5 tickvaluelist=(0 24) tickdisplaylist=("Baseline" "Week 24") ) display=(LINE TICKVALUES) ) yaxisopts=(label = PLOT_UNIT labelattrs=(size = 8pt) labelposition = TOP); scatterplot y=PLOT1_YVAL x= PLOT1_XVAL / group = PLOT_GROUPS jitter = AUTO groupdisplay = CLUSTER grouporder = &GORDER clusterwidth = 0.75 markerattrs=(size = 4 symbol = CIRCLEFILLED) datatransparency = 0.3 ; ...MORE PLOTS HERE... endlayout; ....CONTINUED...   ...

Is there a way to get rid of tick marks entirely in GTL?  As part of my layout, I'm overlaying a scatter and a boxplot for my two different treatment groups.  I don't want tickmarks at all, which I can do in proc sgplot with a display=(noticks) option, but I can't seem to find a similar option in GTL.  Is there a way to get this done?   EXAMPLE CODE layout overlay / xaxisopts=(label=("Change") tickvalueattrs=(size=0 color=white)) yaxisopts=(label=" " labelposition=top); scatterplot y=CHG x= TRT / group=TRT groupdisplay = cluster clusterwidth=1  markerattrs=(size=5 symbol=circlefilled); boxplot y=CHG x=TRT / group=TRT grouporder=data groupdisplay=cluster fillattrs=(transparency=0.6) boxwidth = 1; endlayout; ...
