" I think this is closer to what was asked
for."
I took the original request "(e.g. on the right hand side)" to mean that the
poster was open to other suggestions, but I may have as little idea about
the meaning of "e.g." as about the word "modulo"...

Subject: st: RE: AW: how to have legend as labels on graph
Here's a different approach. I think this is closer to what was asked
for.
Note that we can't comment on what was wrong about your code if you
don't show us any!
webuse lutkepohl2
line ln* qtr, ///
text(`=ln_inv[_N]' `=qtr[_N] + 1' "investment", place(e)) ///
text(`=ln_inc[_N]' `=qtr[_N] + 1' "income", place(e)) ///
text(`=ln_cons[_N]' `=qtr[_N] + 1' "consumption", place(e)) ///
xsc(r(0,108)) ///
legend(off) ///
ytitle(log of unstated units)
Bottom line: use -text()- and -legend(off)-.

You could automate the production of the -tw- code via a loop, as often
advertised on the list...

I have a simple line graph with multiple lines on it (one
line for each province, showing a single variable over time for each).
Having a legend is confusing as the chart will be in B&W and there are a
number of lines so, even with different line styles, it is difficult to
see
which is which. What I want is to have the labels on the chart itself,
next
to each line (e.g. on the right hand side), i.e. next to each line to
have
the name of the province which it's for. I've tried and tried but am
unable to do this, is it possible???
