Dear Carlos,
I apologize if I wasn’t clear.
What I want is to use the "b+10" or "5 0 0 5" notation for marginstyles in a graph SCHEME (see -help scheme entries-), not as an option in a graph command like you used it. Thus, what does *not* work for me is to make a scheme "myscheme" with, among others, the following entry:
margin subheading b+10
and then graphing like so:
sysuse auto
set scheme myscheme
scatter mpg trunk, title("MPG and Trunk") subtitle("Auto data") name(gr1, replace)
This generates the error:
"(note: named style b+10 not found in class margin, default attributes used)"
Hope that clarifies the problem.
Alex
