Subject: st: graph, by and xline options
> Hello,
>
> I am using the -twoway connected y x, by(var)- command to generate a graph
with 9 individual plots (3x3). That all works fine, but now I am trying to
add xlines to each of the 9 plots, where the lines are drawn at different
values for each plot. Is this possible? Looking at the axis_selection
section of the manual does not seem to help when using the by option.

One way is to save each graph and then use -graph combine-
Example:
preserve
sysuse uslifeexp, clear
line le_male year, xline(1939) saving(male)
line le_female year, xline(1956) saving(female)
line le_male year, xline( 1945) saving(male2)
line le_female year, xline(1963) saving(female2)
gr combine male.gph female.gph male2.gph female2.gph
erase male.gph
erase female.gph
erase male2.gph
erase female2.gph
restore
Hope this helps,
Scott
