Re: st: RE: Graph back to data

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

Yes, you can extract the data from a graph using -serset use-

For example:

. sysuse auto
(1978 Automobile Data)

. scatter price weight

. graph save Graph "C:\Users\Scott\Desktop\Graph.gph", replace
(file C:\Users\Scott\Desktop\Graph.gph saved)

. clear

. graph use Graph

. serset dir

  0.  74 observations on 2 variables
      price weight

. serset use

. sum

    Variable |       Obs        Mean    Std. Dev.       Min        Max
-------------+--------------------------------------------------------
       price |        74    6165.257    2949.496       3291      15906
      weight |        74    3019.459    777.1936       1760       4840
