Re: st: combining two Kaplan Meier graphs, with only one legend

[Michael McCulloch <mm@pinest.org>]

Thank you Maarten. -grc1leg- can only choose its own title one of the 
titles from the subgraphs. I have found another way to achieve my 
goal (sub-titles on the subgraphs, with a different meta-title on the 
combined graph). I'm posting this follow-up to share my solutions 
with the list readers:

sysuse cancer.dta, clear
stset studytime, failure(died)
sts graph if age < 55, by(drug) title("Young", box bfcolor(white)) 
saving("young", replace )
sts graph if age >= 55, by(drug) title("Old", box bfcolor(white)) 
saving("old", replace )
graph combine young.gph old.gph, rows(2) cols(2) iscale(0.5) 
title(Survival by Age Group)

Best wishes,
Michael
