Re: st: stata graphs (stata 8), y- or x-label as text over two lines

[Andreas Stiehler <as@berlecon.de>]

Thank you again!
I agree with you on the importance of fixing the axis title.
I, for example, would like to fix both lines on the left side (instead 
of having them centered),

e.g.:
Foreign
(Europe/Japan)

<<<and not:
    Foreign
(Europe/Japan)
>>>

Do I find such advices in the recommended article?

Andreas
