You do not specify exactly what you typed or even what
command you are using. That almost always helps
and never hinders.
I don't know an automated way to do what you want,
but it is not too difficult to knit your own. Here
is a dopey example:
u auto, clear
set scheme s1color
graph bar turn, over(foreign) saving(turn_foreign, replace) asyvars /*
*/ yla(, ang(h)) legend(off) b2title(turn) ytitle(mean values)
graph bar trunk, over(foreign) saving(trunk_foreign, replace) asyvars /*
*/ yla(, ang(h)) ysc(off) legend(off) b2title(trunk)
graph combine "turn_foreign" "trunk_foreign", imargin(zero) ycommon row(1) ysize(4) xsize(6)
The first graph should
specify a -ytitle()-
The second and subsequent graphs should
suppress the -yscale()-
All graphs should
suppress the -legend()-
specify the -b2title()-
specify -saving()-
The -graph combine- should
join the graphs compactly
insist on a common y axis
