Nick,

Thank you very much for this solution. As promised, I am delighted, but also slightly chagrined that I couldn't figure it out myself.

So I revise my earlier suggestion for the 2nd edition of Michael N. Mitchell's Visual Guide to Stata Graphics to:

Please include some examples employing user-written programs, such as Nick Cox's -catplot- and -tabplot- (available at SSC), for graphing categorical data.

David


Your graph can be produced directly by

. sysuse auto, clear
. catplot hbar foreign rep78, percent(foreign) asyvars
