Re: st: grc1leg

an edit to my previous post - a better example:

  .sysuse auto, clear
  .scatter price weight, yaxis(1) ///
       || scatter mpg weight, yaxis(2)  name(g1, replace)
  .scatter price displacement, yaxis(1) ///
       || scatter mpg displacement, yaxis(2) name(g2, replace)
  .grc1leg g1 g2, name(g3, replace)
  .graph display g3, xsize(10) ysize(5)

The workaround is the same.  The previous example, borrowed from the initial 
question, was a poor one.  There was nothing common about the component graphs 
in either graph's legend.
