Thanks to Kit Baum, there is now a new version of the -regaxis- package
downloadable from SSC. In Stata, type
ssc desc regaxis
to find out more, or see below for the description of the package on my
website.
The -regaxis- package is an attempt at a general solution to the problem of
defining regular linear and logarithmic axis scales for Stata 8 graphs. The
new version fixes a few bugs, and has been certified using a basic
certification script for each of the 2 programs -regaxis- and -logaxis-.
Suggestions for further improvements will be welcomed.
Best wishes
Roger

TITLE
regaxis: Regular linear and logarithmic axis scales, ranges and tick
lists
DESCRIPTION/AUTHOR(S)
The regaxis package contains 2 programs, named regaxis and logaxis.
regaxis generates a regular linear axis range and tick list for a
list of
variables and/or numbers to be included in the axis range. logaxis
generates
a regular logarithmic axis range and tick list for a list of
variables and/or
numbers to be included in the axis range. Both programs can output the
elements of the axis range and/or tick list to be stored in local and/or
global macros, which can then be used in Stata graphics commands as axis
options and suboptions, such as the the range() suboption of the
xscale() and
yscale() options, or the xlabel() ylabel(), xtick() and ytick() options.
