Here is an example.
sysuse sp500, clear
histogram close, horizontal xsc(reverse) normal freq ysc(off)
fxsize(20) name(g1, replace) width(10)
line close date, ysc(alt) yla(, ang(h)) name(g2, replace) xla(,
format(%tddd_Mon)) xtitle("2001")
graph combine g1 g2, ycommon imargin(small)
However, this example does not imply that I just wrote down these
commands. No; this is the cleaned-up version after making numerous
small changes. Open a do-file editor with a script once you have
commands that work, expect to have to make many tweaks. -name(,
replace)- is a crucial detail.
