I am using proc sgplot and i need sybols in graph as for one treatment as 1 and other treatment as 2 and other treatment as P.
How can i do it using sgplot
What version of SAS are you using?
SAS 9.4
Are you scatter plots grouped or overlaid? It might be helpful to see a snippit of the SGPLOT code.
Attached a layout. in this instaed of circle i need '1' and instead of '*' i need as '2' and other one as 'P' may be.
The reason I need to know if your SGPLOT code is using groups versus overlays is that it will make a difference in the solution. Is your plot statement using the GROUP option, or are you using three plot statements?
In 9.4 there is an option symbol=, for which you can put a character in to display for each plot. See this:

Note that blog is very useful for any graph questions.
Here is a sample solution both the GROUPED and OVERLAID cases:
Overlaid:
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
symbolchar name=plot1 char='0031'x;
symbolchar name=plot2 char='0032'x;
scatter x=age y=height / markerattrs=(symbol=plot1 size=12pt);
scatter x=age y=height / markerattrs=(symbol=plot2 size=12pt);
run;
Grouped (two solutions):
ods graphics / attrpriority=none;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class;
symbolchar name=plot1 char='0031'x;
symbolchar name=plot2 char='0032'x;
styleattrs datasymbols=(plot1 plot2);
scatter x=age y=height / group=sex markerattrs=(size=12pt);
run;
- OR -
data attrmap;
retain id "gender";
input value $ markersymbol $;
cards;
F plot1
M plot2
;
run;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.class dattrmap=attrmap;
symbolchar name=plot1 char='0031'x;
symbolchar name=plot2 char='0032'x;
scatter x=age y=height / group=sex markerattrs=(size=12pt) attrid=gender;
run;
