.

If I do

scatter var1 var2

and var2 is formatted as %td date variable then var2 is labelled as formatted.

If I do

graph box var1, over(var2)

or

dotplot var1, over(var2)

then var2 is not labelled as formatted.

There doesn't seem to be a way to get the %td formatted group variable to use its formatting. One can relabel(# "text") manually, or one can use the graph twoway command, but it seems like this should be an option to allow the group variable formatting to be used.
