1. For the line pattern, change the option to -blpattern(dash)-
2. For the marker symbol, if you alter lines 66 and 67 of Nick’s
program (and hopefully this isn’t sacrilege) from
local msymbol "Oh Th"
local sy2 "ms(Th)"
to:
if "`msymbol'" != "" {
tokenize `msymbol'
local msymbol "`1'"
if "`2'" != "" {
local sy2 "ms(`2')"
}
else {
local sy2 "ms(th)"
}
}
else {
local msymbol "o"
local sy2 "ms(th)"
}
the marker symbols will be controlled.
Of course, you should save this as -pairplot2- (and change line 11 to:
program pairplot2, sortpreserve ) incase of any future improvements
to –pairplot-
Hope this helps,
Scott
