I am trying to include the content of a macro within a graph, but I'm
having problems with the display format.
For example:
sysuse auto, clear
qui: summ length
twoway scatter length mpg, text(200 35 "The mean of length is:
`r(mean)'")
How do I change the format of the macro to display something like %9.2f?
I tried:
... , text(200 35 "The mean of length is: `%9.1f `r(mean)''")
Am I missing some triple compound quote? :-)
Thanks,
Thomas
