Custom ODS Style Definition

The main objective of this code is to enhance the aesthetics of SAS^©-generated outputs, particularly for reports and visualizations. The 'customSapphire' style modifies the following elements:

The background colors of 'Header', 'Footer', 'RowHeader', and 'RowFooter' classes are set to CXdae4f3.
The 'graph' class has its attribute priority set to 'none'.
The colors of text, reference lines, borders, outlines, grids, and axes are customized under 'GraphColors'.
The appearance of tables is modified to include thicker borders, cell spacing, and a specific border color (cx919191).
The thickness of various graph lines (borders, axes, outlines, data, box plots, grids) is uniformly set to 2px for better visibility.

Data Analysis

Type : INTERNAL_CREATION

The script does not process external data. It defines an internal style object that will then be used by SAS to format outputs. The `store=Bookdata.Template` clause indicates that the style definition will be stored in the `Bookdata` library, but does not imply the use of input data from this library for the style definition itself.

1 Code Block

PROC TEMPLATE

Explanation :
This block uses the `PROC TEMPLATE` procedure to create a new ODS style template. The initial `libname BookData` is a commented instruction to the user to define a library, but does not affect the execution of `PROC TEMPLATE` itself. The `customSapphire` style is defined as a child of the `styles.sapphire` style. It specifies custom attributes for various ODS classes (Header, Footer, RowHeader, RowFooter, graph, GraphColors, table, GraphBorderLines, etc.), allowing control over the appearance of SAS-generated reports and graphs. Colors are defined using hexadecimal codes (CX).
