re: Re: st: [Stata 9] scatter axis bug

[David Airey <david.airey@vanderbilt.edu>]

I neglected to say I am using StataSE 9 on a Mac with OS 10.4 too. I  
do not get the axes you describe using my example below:

// a simple example of the problem:

input y x
-1 .
20 50
30 40
40 30
50 20
. -1
end

scatter y x

// which for me gives the range of the scatter plot as 0-50 on both axes
// the graph will look really weird if you replace the 1s with -1000.

I note that both :

plot y x // hah!

and

gr7 y x, twoway

give the axes labeled from 20 to 50 as I expect.

version 8.0 or 8.2 does not change the behavior from version 9.0

I'll send a note to Stata.
