Statalisters,
I'm trying to add text to the upper left of my scatter plot via the -text()- option. However, because Stata chooses the x and y ranges to be neat, there's no way for me to know exactly what the minimum x value & maximum y value are. If I simply choose these values from my data, the text box is always closer to the center than I'd like.
Is there a way to obtain this information from Stata? Alternatively, is there an option to place the textbox in the upper left?
Thank you,
- Elan
