Re: AW: st: RE: Shifting graph axis

[Susanne Elsas <susanne.elsas@uni-bamberg.de>]

this problem is easy to avoid:
instead of plotregion(margin(zero))
type plotregion( m(b=0) )

regards,
susanne

***
sysuse auto, clear
sc price weight, name(first, replace) nodraw
sc price weight, plotregion(margin(zero)) name(second, replace) nodraw
sc price weight, plotregion(m(b=0)) name(third, replace) nodraw
graph combine first second third
