ylThat matches my experiments to date, and that
you have hit a limitation of the command.
I think the logic is that you have categories
and that it would be too perverse to have
a category you didn't want to label.
But your axis is "really" numerical.
I think you may need to knit your own using
-twoway bar-, something like this:
gen gene1 = gene - 0.1
gen gene2 = gene + 0.1
twoway bar yl gene1, barw(0.2)
|| bar yr gene2, barw(0.2) xla(0(5)50)
