Here is a kludge, nothing to write home about :-( 


*************

set obs 2
gen var=40*(_n==1)+60*(_n==2)
gen byte x=_n
twoway (bar var x, ysca(r(0)) fcolor(gold)) (function y=30, range(0 3))

Betreff: st: line on top of bar graph


There must be a way to do this, but I can't seem to
make it happen.

I have a simple bar graph:

  clear
  set obs 1
  gen var1=40
  gen var2=60
  graph bar var1 var2, bargap(20)

and I want to add a reference line

  graph bar var1 var2 , bargap(20) yline(30)

The problem is, the added line goes *behind* the bars, and is
mostly invisible. I want -yline- to go on top of the bars, but
no combinatin of -yline- options or styles seems to make this
happen. Any ideas?

thanks,
Jeph
