Syntax

GOPTIONS: SWAP | NOSWAP

GDEVICE: SWAP=Y | N

SWAP SWAP=Y: swaps BLACK for WHITE and vice versa.
NOSWAP SWAP=N: does not swap the colors. A blank Swap field in the Parameters window is the same as SWAP=N.

Details

SWAP does not affect the background color and only affects BLACK and WHITE foreground colors specified as predefined SAS color names. SWAP ignores BLACK and WHITE specified in HLS, RGB, or gray-scale format. This option is useful when you want to preview a graph on a video device and send the final copy to a printer that uses a white background.
