Unless I misunderstand your example (which the exchange below suggests it may fail the Statalist FAQ dictum: "Say exactly what you typed and exactly what Stata typed (or did) in response. N.B. exactly!"), it looks to me that you are not using your named graphs in your -graph combine- and -grc1leg- commands, but rather (old?) versions you have saved to disk. If so, this could yield unanticipated results.

(As an aside: why hard-code Windows-type paths into such a simple example? It is completely unnecessary, even if you are -saving()- the graphs. When people do this, they are implicitly saying they don't want any help from the many folks on Statalist who use a non-MS operating system.)

hmm, when I run the -gr combine- I get a very tall skinny combined graph, but the -grc1leg- does not do that for me. It is like the ysize option is ignored, and doesn't return an error or anything.

sorry about the path mess...

Seems to me that -grc1leg- takes all the options of the official - gr combine-. Your syntax runs without error for me (apart from the obvious path issue), with

. which grc1leg
c:\ado\plus\g\grc1leg.ado
*! version 1.0.4  08sep2005

I've ran into a problem using -grc1leg-, which puts a single legend on a combined graph. I am unable to use the -xsize- and - ysize- region options, which are available when using -graph combine-. here's an example:

sysuse auto, clear
scatter price mpg, name(g1)
scatter weight length, name(g2)
graph combine "C:\_DATA\g1" "C:\_DATA\g2", ysize(10)
grc1leg "C:\_DATA\g1" "C:\_DATA\g2", ysize(10)

can anyone fix this?
