st: RE: Problem with graphs in separate tabs (Windows)

["David Radwin" <dradwin@mprinc.com>]

Dirk,

You may need to use the -name- option to give each new graph window a
separate name rather than replacing the existing window. For example:

. twoway function y=x, name(graph_1)

. twoway function y=x^2, name(graph_2)
