Using DISCRETEATTRMAP in GTL pie chart

[svh]

Hello, I am trying to use GTL to make a template for a series of pie charts (I know, I know) that are needed for my org. I am trying to use the DISCRETEATTRMAP statement to ensure that certain levels retain the same colors in the pie chart. (People will be viewing lots of these, so I need consistency across charts). The variables in my data set are numeric, and I am using a format to bin them into categories. The desired output is a pie chart with wedges, but this code is making concentric circles and is not applying the colors.

I have read the documentation that I can find but am still stumped about where I'm going wrong. If I remove the GROUP statement, I get a pie chart with wedges, but not with the correct colors. Any tips would be appreciated!

data test;
input x @@;
datalines;
1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 4 4 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 7 7 7 5 5 4 4 3 3 
;
run;


** Load the binning format ;
proc format;
  value bin
  1 = 'Never'
  2 = 'Once or Twice'
  3 - 7 = 'Multiple Times'
  ;

proc template;
   define statgraph pie2;
      begingraph;
	     entrytitle "Overall";
		 discreteattrmap name='colors' /ignorecase=true;  ** This is where things are going wrong. ;
                    value 'Never' / fillattrs= (color=green) ;
                    value 'Once or Twice' / fillattrs= (color=yellow) ;
                    value 'Multiple Times'/ fillattrs= (color=red);
                  enddiscreteattrmap ;
		     discreteattrvar attrvar=classfill var=x attrmap='colors';
	     layout region;
            piechart category = x /
	    stat = pct
            datalabellocation = inside
            categorydirection = clockwise
            start = 180 
            name = 'pie'
  	    group = classfill;
            discretelegend 'pie' 
            ;
         endlayout;
      endgraph;
   end;
run;
proc sgrender data = test 
            template = pie2;
			format x bin.;  
run;

The

group = classfill

is what makes the concentric rings.

Try removing it and see if the result is as expected.

When I remove it, I get the wedges, but not the desired colors. It's as if I can't get the format to be picked up by the attribute values.

Removing group was the first step. I also needed to change the attrvar= to attrvar=x. Thanks!

proc template;
   define statgraph pie4;
      begingraph;
	     entrytitle "Overall";
		 discreteattrmap name='colors' /ignorecase=true;  ** This is where things are going wrong. ;
   value 'Never' / fillattrs= (color=green) ;
   value 'Once or Twice' / fillattrs= (color=yellow) ;
   value 'Multiple Times'/ fillattrs= (color=red);
         enddiscreteattrmap ;
		 discreteattrvar attrvar=x var=x attrmap='colors';
	     layout region;
            piechart category = x /
			stat = pct
            datalabellocation = inside
            categorydirection = clockwise
            start = 180 
            name = 'pie'
  			;
            discretelegend 'pie' 
            ;
         endlayout;
      endgraph;
   end;
run;
proc sgrender data = test 
            template = pie4;
			format x bin.;  
run;
