Most such diagnostic plot commands for use after model fitting that are part of official Stata [NB spelling] do indeed presume prior use of -regress- (or -anova-).
Some less restrictive commands are included in

Q4/04 SJ 4(4):449--475
plotting diagnostic information calculated from residuals
and fitted values from regression models with continuous
responses
but that package does not include an added variable plot commmand.
More positively, the main trick is to look carefully at the -postestimation- help. Very often a diagnostic plot that you want is just a standard -twoway- command applied to some variant of the predictions, residuals, etc.

I am using the xtreg command for analyzing panel data. I want to develop
avplots in order to graphically show the impact of various independent
variables holding the other independent variables constant.
However STATA is returning an error: "last estimates not found". However,
when I drop the xt and only use the reg command it will produce my desired
avplots.
I have searched on-line and cannot find any help. Is there an option for
producing avplots when conducting panel data analysis using the xt command
or some other solution I am not aware of?
