i have similar situation in link below. my question is this is individual plot with many lines.
but for legend, i just want to specify the color by group.
for example, in FreelanceReinh Jade's post:
series x=avisit y=aval / group=usubjid attrid=myid;
for legend, instead of list usubjids, just want to list legend as blue for trta='A' and red for trta='B'. how do i do that? thanks.

You need to use a secondary classifier on the SERIES plot, and tell the legend to show only the line color. Here is an example using the data from the other post:
data test;
input usubjid$ trta$ avisit$ aval;
datalines;
xx-01 A Day1 10
xx-01 A Day5 11
xx-02 A Day1 9
xx-02 A Day5 10
xx-03 B Day1 20
xx-03 B Day5 17
xx-04 B Day1 19
xx-04 B Day5 21
;
run;
proc sgplot data=test;
series x=avisit y=aval / group=usubjid grouplc=trta;
keylegend / type=linecolor title="TRTA";
run;
