-metan- is a user-written command (SSC). It usually helps and never hurts if you show exact code that you tried. In general with a graphics command you can not omit data points from a graph by truncating the axis scale. You must omit data explicitly e.g. by using -if-. -xaxis()- and -xlabel()- are options, not commands. Nick n.j.cox@durham.ac.uk Vincent de Jonge I did a meta-analysis on count data using the db metan command and plotted a forest plot. However, to improve readability I would like to limit the x axis. This just won't work. I don't know how to do it. Tried commands like xaxis, xlabel, etc. but always get an error. Hope someone can get me the answer. * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/help.cgi?search * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/
