Re: st: AW: tabplot how to get rid of Graphs by ?

[Nick Cox <njcoxstata@gmail.com>]

Sorry, but I don't understand the question.

If you add the suboption -total-  to -by()-

1. -tabplot- itself does nothing special. You are just relying on what
-twoway- does in those circumstances.

2. In your example, the values shown for the -total- case are totals
over percents, and so just 100% in every instance. That's reassuring,
but it's not interesting or informative.
