Re: st: Stata 13 linepatternstyle

Sam,

linepatternstyle is still available in Stata 13:
http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?linepatternstyle

Does this one line of code produce a graph of two intersecting patterned lines?

twoway scatteri 100 100 200 200, recast(line) lpattern(dash) ||
scatteri 100 200 200 100, recast(line) lpattern(dot) legend(off)
graphregion(color(white))

The benchmark image is here (as rendered in Stata 12):

And the code is here:

======================================================================

Do you mean, perhaps, patterned fills, as for example in -parea-?
-parea- is from here: http://ideas.repec.org/c/boc/bocode/s456926.html
As the author of -parea- I would like to know if it continues to work
in Stata 13.
An example do file is here: http://fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/p/pareademo.do
and no dataset is required for running the example.
The benchmark image is shown here (as rendered in Stata 12):

Best, Sergiy

NB: -parea- graphing command is not related to Parea restaurant in
Valparaiso or the Pennsylvania Real Estate Academy :)
