StataCorp decided not to include this directly
in Stata 8.
However, what you want is really just
a kind of scatter plot and can be achieved after
a (temporary) restructure of your data.
Alternatively, you can use -onewayplot- from
SSC to avoid thinking about that restructuring.
. ssc inst onewayplot
will install the program on your system.
In your case,
. onewayplot var1 var2 var3
would be a good start. With the auto
data,
. onewayplot mpg turn trunk
. onewayplot mpg turn trunk, stack variablelabels
are a couple of examples. The help file
says much more, including a comparison with
-gr7, oneway- and -dotplot-.
