Nick,
Try using "X" (capital x) and then switching the font in the graph window (Edit->Preferences) to a Symbol font.
On my Windows installation of Stata, the default font is Arial and the Arial Symbol font has X-bar instead of X.

Subject: st: graph text box: special character
Hi,
I'm trying to put a text box inside a Stata graph containing the symbol "x with the line above" for mean into the box. After some tests I figured out how to put some special characters and greek symbols in the box as in this example:
twoway (line miles id, sort), text(16 5 "{&chi}{sup:2}: `m_cal_min' ")
but I couldn't find the symbol for mean.
Hope somebody can help me.
Best
-Nick
