Hello! I need some help with a graphing problem...!
I need to graph a scatter plot and label the points. The problem I have
is that the labels overlap. I found a way to solve this problem in the
Stata v8 manual (p. 406). They suggest to create a variable -pos- with
the position of the label and then specify the position of the label
when graphing using the option -mlablv-. This option -mlablv-, however,
is not recognized by my Stata v8 program. This is what I am doing:
gen pos = 3
replace pos = 9 if country == "Thailand" | country == "Russia"
twoway scatter rating date, mlabel(country) mlablv(pos)
but I get the following error message:
option mlablv() not allowed
invalid syntax
r(198);
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks a lot!
Adrian
