Re: st: multiline value label in a -catplot- graph

[Nick Winter <nw53@cornell.edu>]

-catplot- appears to have an undocumented option, -oversubopts()-, that 
allows you to specify options for the over() variable--which is catvar1 in 
your example.

So you can do:

catplot bar rep78 , percent ///
      oversubopts( relabel( 1 `" "Strongly" "Disagree" "' ///
      2 `" Disagree "' ///
      3 `" "Neither" "Agree nor" "Disagree" "' ///
      4 `" Agree "' ///
      5 `" "Strongly" "Agree" "'))

If those labels are already value labels for your categorical variable, 
then my program -splitvallabels- from SSC will automate the process of 
creating the relabel() option.
