I feel kind of dumb for this one, but I've worked on it and come up only
with a very tedious workaround. I'm hoping someone knows a better way
for next time . . .
I'm running a fairly complicated bar chart:
graph bar (asis) portion1-portion12 if year > 1983, ylabel(0(.1).2,
grid) ascategory by(dummy year, [other options])
the variables (portion1-portion12) name 12 variables, each of which is
labeled.
So here's my question. It defaults to blue, and I need it to be red.
(In particular, bcolor(red*.5) blc(red*.8)). But I can't figure out how
to get the color to work as syntax). No matter where I put it, I get an
error message. (I can do this by omitting the ascategory, and then
doing it bar by bar, but then I have to label the bar widths, too, and I
figure there's got to be a better way.)
Any help is much appreciated.
Margo
