Pie Chart Slice Colors

sms39 — Wed, 29 Jan 2020 00:59:02 GMT

Hi all,

I am trying to specify pie chart slice colors but keep finding myself at the default colors chosen for me by SAS. I am hoping to correlate charts across distinct data sets, so coordinating colors among the charts would be helpful. There is no auto-recognition of the test in the discreteattrmap, so perhaps that is not feasible for this pie chart, but I will include my attempt below.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? Thank you!

/* General Demographics - age groups*/
/* Group 1*/
proc format;
value AgeGrp 1-30 ='Age <30'
30-59 = 'Age 30-59'
60-100 = 'Age >60';
run;

proc freq data=work.analysis_population;
format SC_AGE AgeGrp.;
Table SC_AGE;
Run;

proc template;
define statgraph pie;
begingraph;
discreteattrmap name="AgeAttr";
value "Age <30" / fillattrs=(color=green);
value "Age 30-59" / fillattrs=(color=red);
value "Age >60" / fillattrs=(color=blue);
enddiscreteattrmap;

discreteattrvar attrvar=AgeGrp var=SC_AGE attrmap="AgeAttr";
layout region;
piechart category=SC_AGE / start=90 categorydirection=clockwise
datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
endlayout;
endgraph;
end;
run;

I don't use the graph template language, but I was able to use an attribute map data set with several SASHELP data sets.

As the log notes, SGPIE is pre-production for SAS 9.4M6. I tried to control the color for the "Other" slice when using AgeAtStart for the SASHELP.HEART data set, but couldn't get the syntax to work.

proc format;
  value AgeGrp 
    1 - 29 ='Age < 30'
    30 - 59 ='Age 30 - 59'
    60 - 100 ='Age 60+'
      ;
run;

data attrmap;
  length ID $ 8 FillColor $ 9 value $ 11;
  infile datalines dlm='|';
  input id $ fillcolor $ value $;
  datalines;
myagegrp|green|Age < 30
myagegrp|red|Age 30 - 59
myagegrp|blue|Age 60+
     ;
run;

ods listing gpath='/folders/myfolders/ODS Graphics/SGPIE'
    style=HTMLBlue;

ods graphics / noborder
               imagename='SGPIE_example_'
               reset=index(1);

proc sgpie data=sashelp.bmimen dattrmap=attrmap;
  pie age / startangle=90 direction=clockwise attrid=myagegrp
            datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
  format age AgeGrp. ;
  title 'SASHELP.BMIMEN data set';
run;

proc sgpie data=sashelp.class dattrmap=attrmap;
  pie age / startangle=90 direction=clockwise attrid=myagegrp
            datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
  format age AgeGrp. ;
  title 'SASHELP.CLASS data set';
run;

proc sgpie data=sashelp.heart dattrmap=attrmap;
  pie AgeAtStart / startangle=90 direction=clockwise attrid=myagegrp
                   datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
  format AgeAtStart AgeGrp. ;
  title 'SASHELP.HEART data set';
  title2 'AgeAtStart';
run;

proc sgpie data=sashelp.heart dattrmap=attrmap;
  pie AgeAtDeath / startangle=90 direction=clockwise attrid=myagegrp
                   datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
  format AgeAtDeath AgeGrp. ;
  title 'SASHELP.HEART data set';
  title2 'AgeAtDeath';
run;

proc sgpie data=sashelp.heart dattrmap=attrmap;
  pie AgeCHDdiag / startangle=90 direction=clockwise attrid=myagegrp
                   datalabelattrs=(size=12) dataskin=matte;
  format AgeCHDdiag AgeGrp. ;
  title 'SASHELP.HEART data set';
  title2 'AgeCHDdiag';
run;

These are the pie charts:
