One way would be use the - generate([newvarx] newvary)- option save the
results and then graph them yourself.
Or, copy -locpoly- to your personal directory (such as, c:\ado\personal\) as
-locpoly2-, add the line
`options' ///
after line 162, so that lines 155 to 163 read:
(line `yhat' `xgrid', ///
sort ///
pstyle(p1) ///
`titles' ///
ytitle(`"`yttl'"') ///
xtitle(`"`xttl'"') ///
`rlopts' ///
`twopts' ///
`options' ///
And save the file.
Now this will work:
