ok, I found that I can use "format %9.1fc" to get one decimal point in my axis values (took a guess from looking at the stata manuals)....so where do I find more information as to what this "%9.1fc" means?

Subject: st: y axis significant digits
Is there a way to control the number of significant digits presented on the y-axis in a twoway scatter plot? My current graph has values of 1.6, 1.8, 2, 2.2, but I would like to have the "2" be "2.0". Below is my code (I tried to input the desired values into the ylabel option, but it still just printed "2" instead of "2.0"):
(connected mmtw time if study=="one" & sex=="f" & trt==8, lcolor(ltblue) lpattern(solid) lwidth(thick) msymbol(point) mcolor(gs13) mlabel(temp) mlabsize(medium) mlabcolor(gs0)), ytitle(Average Female Total Weight (g)) ylabel(1.6 1.8 2.0 2.2, angle(horizontal)) xtitle(Time) xlabel( 1 "Start" 2 "Middle" 3 "End", noticks) legend(off) scheme(s1mono) graphregion(lcolor(none) ilcolor(none)) plotregion(lcolor(none))
thanks,
Chris
