Thank you Steven.
Option replace has an inconsistency of its own:
sysuse auto
scatter l w, name("Graph") mc(red)
scatter l w
graph display Graph
Here the second command overrides the graph saved in the first command
without an option -replace-.
Nothing deadly, but can happen, because the reserved name for the
default graph "Graph" is nothing extraordinary like "_ST0001XYZ". Does
the manual describe "Graph" as the such name?
Anyways, just wish graph clear _all was part of the official clear.
Best regards,
Sergiy Radyakin
