Re: st: RE: hbox line

[Michael Norman Mitchell <Michael.Norman.Mitchell@gmail.com>]

Greetings

  I tried the solution mentioned in the link mentioned by Martin, but I 
found the same problem that reg jordan referred to. I ran -graph hbox 
bp, yline(10)- and the line was placed horizontally on the graph in 
Stata version 11. When I ran the command -graph hbox bp, yline(130)- in 
Stata 10, the line was placed vertically. Methinks there is some 
misbehavior with -graph hbox- and -yline()- in Stata version 11.
  For now, I like Martin's workaround of using the graph editor until 
this is fixed.
Best regards,

Michael N. Mitchell

Apparently one cannot use this command with Stata11. Any suggestions about how to draw a line using hbox? Thanks in advance for your assistance.
