Dear Statalisters,
I am preparing a set of graphs in which the values of the x-axis
variable, "year", ranges from 1816 to 1992. The following is the what I have
typed in my do-file (I am using Stata 8):
==========
#delimit ;
graph twoway line meandemdisp meannondemdisp year if year>1815 & year<1992,
sort
title("Graph 3")
subtitle("Mean # Major-Major Power Dyad Dispute Involvements by Regime Type")
legend(label(1 "jointly democratic dyads") label(2 "non-jointly democratic
dyads"))
ytitle("")
xtitle("year")
xscale(range(1816 1992) noextend) ;
===================================
However, when the graph is displayed, the x-axis still ranges from 1800 to
2000, even though there are no values of the y-axis variables for the years
1800 to 1815, and 1993 to 2000.
Where have I gone wrong? I have been reading the Graphics manual, which is why
I added the options "xscale(range)", but to no avail.
Sincerely,
Kwang Teo
