Subject   st: mlowess- Rescaling the Y-axis

Hi Statalist

I am trying to depict the Lowess smoothing with multiple predictors using the command 'mlowess'. Because I only needed the smoothed curve, I added the 'nopt' option to get rid of the scatterplot. This was the code:

.mlowess teeth income, nopt

The curve lie below the value 2 of the y-axis, but the y-axis ranges from 0-25. As a result, the curve looks really small and it is hard to interpret. Changing the range of the y-axis using the' yscale' and 'ylable' is not feasible due to wide range of observations. I was wondering if anyone have any suggestion to enlarge the curve either by changing the scale of the y-axis  or etc..

Kind regards,
