Thanks Nick. I've tried the syntax you wrote but STATA does not recognize 'stripplot' command. i have Stata 11.1
unrecognized command: stripplot
r(199);

This answer won't help. The median markers are marker symbols, so changing the symbol will not produce a straight line,
I don't think you can do this with -dotplot- short of cloning the program and changing the code.
-stripplot- (SSC) can get closer to what you want. You can look at its
-box- option.
This example shows other possibilities, but you would need to write some ad hoc extra code in the same style for your problem.
sysuse auto, clear
egen median = median(mpg) , by(foreign)
gen x1 = 0
gen x2 = 0.8
gen x3 = 1
gen x4 = 1.8
stripplot mpg, over(foreign) vertical stack /// addplot(rspike x1 x2 median if !foreign, horizontal || /// rspike x3 x4 median if foreign, horizontal)
