stripplot: Getting rid of "graphs by ___ " note in lower left

[Chris Martin]

I'm using the latest version stripplot (ran ssc install stripplot today) with both the over and by options. I'm using Stata/SE 15.1. I found that stripplot adds a note at the bottom right: "Graphs by varname" where varname is the by variable.

I have tried adding note("") and subtitle("") but neither of these things gets rid of that note. Here is the code snippet as it currently stands:

stripplot L2, subtitle("") note("") over(emot4cat) by(situs) bar(level(95)) cumulate scheme(s1color) ytitle("")

This can probably be replicated using any variables in any dataset as long as the 'by' option is used. I'm looking for a way to get rid of that note. Thanks.

Put the note("") inside the by():

sysuse auto, clear
stripplot price, subtitle("") over(rep78) by(foreign, note("")) bar(level(95)) cumulate scheme(s1color) ytitle("")

I think this is fairly standard Stata syntax, but I find the logic confusing.

Thank you

Dimitriy V. Masterov Is completely correct. This is just standard Stata syntax and not at all idiosyncratic to stripplot.
