The GEE Procedure

ODS Graphics

Statistical procedures use ODS Graphics to create graphs as part of their output. ODS Graphics is described in detail in ChapterĀ 24, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

Before you create graphs, ODS Graphics must be enabled (for example, by specifying the ODS GRAPHICS ON statement). For more information about enabling and disabling ODS Graphics, see the section Enabling and Disabling ODS Graphics in ChapterĀ 24, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

The overall appearance of graphs is controlled by ODS styles. Styles and other aspects of using ODS Graphics are discussed in the section A Primer on ODS Statistical Graphics in ChapterĀ 24, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

ODS Graph Names

PROC GEE assigns a name to each graph it creates using ODS. You can use these names to refer to the graphs when you use ODS. Table 15 lists the names.

To request these graphs, ODS Graphics must be enabled and you must specify the statement and option that are indicated in Table 15.
