Problem with legend in scatterplot

[fri0]

Hi, I'm using EG 7.12 and I have a problem when I use markerattrs. (NBRSUCAGE is the variable with the label names for the graph legend)

Using this code, the legend appears:

proc sgplot data=stats.cuadro; 
scatter x=var16_17 y=ING17 /group=NBRSUCAGE  name="ag";
discretelegend "ag" / title="Agencias";
title "Variación 2016- 2017 vs Ingresos"; 
run;

But, when I agree the markeratrrbs option, the legend disappears:

proc sgplot data=stats.cuadro; 
scatter x=var16_17 y=ING17 /group=NBRSUCAGE markerattrs=(symbol=circlefilled size=3pct) name="ag";
discretelegend "ag" / title="Agencias";
title "Variación 2016- 2017 vs Ingresos"; 
run;

How could I maintain the changes without losing the legend?

Also, It would be a plus if there is any way to have different symbols for markers without coding a previous template. Thank you very much!

1: What are you trying to accomplish with the DISCRETELEGEND Statement?

2: You can use different symbols for markers without coding a previous template by setting the ATTRPRIORITY=NONE in the ODS GRAPHICS Statement and use the STYLEATTRS Statement as in the following small example

ods graphics on / attrpriority=none;
proc sgplot data=sashelp.iris noautolegend;
   styleattrs datasymbols=(circlefilled squarefilled starfilled) ;
   scatter x=sepallength y=sepalwidth / group=species;
   keylegend / location=inside position=NE across=1;
run;

Hi!
1. Justo to show the legend next to the graph, I don't want to have label over the markers. Is there a better way?.
2. Ok, It's needed a previous template. Thanks!

Use the KEYLEGEND Statement and alter the POSITION= and LOCATION= Options to put the legend where you want it

Hi draycut, I checked the keylegend statement, got better output, but I have the same problem when I included the markerattrs option. After many changes, I realize that the problem appears when you use pct as measure for the size marker, I changed it to mm and the legend appears. Thanks!!!
