Re: st: labels in -hbar- with over() and sort() specified

[Scott Merryman <scott.merryman@gmail.com>]

The same thing happens in version 12.1

Perhaps something like this:


sysuse auto, clear
ta  headroom, g(z)
drop z6-z8

collapse z*, by(fore)
reshape long z, i(fore)
graph hbar (asis) z,  over(_j) over(_j, sort(z) gap(0)) ///
 over(fore) legend(off) bargap(0)
