I used the method you showed at this thread to place brackets on the bar charts by group created by twoway comamnd. However, it doesn't work. Could you please help me?

What does "it doesn't work" mean here? Do you not show the result in #17?

Thanks for your response. In fact, I have difficulties in addressing this issue at https://www.statalist.org/forums/for...roups-in-stata in which I want to add brackets in your graph here to the bar charts created by twoway command.

Hi everyone, I have a similar question - what if I want to use scatteri, but I want the line to appear "outside the plot", i.e below the x-axis ideally. For example, if I use the yline command for a point that is outside the specified y axis, it will plot the line outside of the graph (below the x-axis). However, yline will not work for what I want because I want my line to span only part of the x-axis. The problem with using scatteri however, is that if I choose to put the line with coordinates outside my specified plot region, it just enlarges the plot region. To be clear, the attached figure is what I am trying to replicate. In this figure, the curly braces and the text below the x-axis has been added on powerpoint - I want to achieve this in Stata. It is ok if I can't get curly braces, I can use square brackets instead. But as explained, when I try to achieve this through scatteri (by giving a y coordinate of, say -0.1), it enlarges the plot region so that the bracket does not come below the x-axis like I want it to.
