st: formatting of a %td variable in over() in graphs

.
If I do
scatter var1 var2
and var2 is formatted as %td date variable then var2 is labelled as formatted.
If I do
graph box var1, over(var2)
or
dotplot var1, over(var2)
then var2 is not labelled as formatted.
There doesn't seem to be a way to get the %td formatted group variable to use its formatting. One can relabel(# "text") manually, or one can use the graph twoway command, but it seems like this should be an option to allow the group variable formatting to be used.
