Hudes, Estie <[email protected]> is having trouble with -graph- options
while using -roccomp-:

I tried to reproduce Estie's results using a modified example from [R] roc;
however, everything work correctly. I used the following do-file.
(Note the spaces are on purpose, to reproduce the reported syntax used.)
***** BEGIN: roc.do
clear
webuse ct2
set seed 1234
gen mod4 = 1 + int(6*uniform())
roccomp status mod*, graph ///
msymbol (O D T X Oh) ///
clwidth (vthin vthin vthin vthin) ///
clcolor (black black black black) ///
norefline
***** END: roc.do
I invite Estie to write directly to tech support ([email protected])
with a short do-file (and small dataset) that reproduces the problem.
