I tried to create multiple-line labels for bar graphs but they only
work at certain angles (multiples of 90 degrees). Single line labels
can have an angle of 45 degrees, for example.

. sysuse auto, clear
. graph bar mpg, over(foreign, relabel(1 "Domestic cars")
label(angle(45)))
. graph bar mpg, over(foreign, relabel(1 `" `"Domestic"' `"cars"' "')
label(angle(45)))

The first -graph- command works as expected but in the second command
the -angle(45)- option is ignored. Notice how the x-axis is moved up
in the second graph to create space for the angled lable, but the
label itself appears written horizontally. Is there any way to create
multiple-line labels with a 45 degree angle?

Many thanks,

Friedrich Huebler
