-vplplot- is running under version control and therefore using Stata's old
graphics engine. Don may edit the graph preferences for old-style graphs
by typing
. oldgprefs
Within Stata 8, this launches a dialog box which provides access to
the complete set of old Stata 7 graph preferences. The old graph
preferences may also be set from the command line; see -help gprefs-.
