stacked line graph

[Joe Ward]

Dear Statalist

I have produced a stacked bar graph for different mortality rates for different causes in year x, so the height of the graph is equal to total mortality. I would like to present this over time, as an area plot/ or stacked line graph. Essentially each bar for each year placed next to one another with no gaps.

When I use twoway area, each cause is plotted on top of the other, rather than stacked; the highest point on the graph for year y is the cause with the highest value, whereas I would like this to equal the sum of all the causes.

Any help would be much appreciated

Best Wishes

You describe what you need to do, so just implement it. See, for example,
