st: Adding a time-invariant covariate in SEM builder

[W Robert Long <W.R.Long@leeds.ac.uk>]

Hi all

I am working with a latent growth curve model.

After fitting the growth model (that is, the model with just the latent 
growth factors and the measured variables), I add a time-invariant (in 
this case "male") covariate in the do file like this:

1. add the path: (Intercept Slope <- male _cons)
2. remove the means() option
3. and add e. to the factor covariances (if any)

No problem with that.

My question is how to achieve the the same thing with SEM builder ?   
Specifically, how do I get _cons into the paths from the time-invariant 
covariate to the latent growth factors ?

Thanks
Robert Long
