Title on second y-axis when using by-option

[Janne Tidselbak Larsen]

Hi,

Any suggestions on how to put a title on the second y-axis when combining multiple y-axes with the by-option?

sysuse auto, clear
twoway (scatter price rep78, yaxis(1)) (scatter mpg rep78, yaxis(2)), by(foreign) ytitle("title1", axis(1)) ytitle("title2", axis(2))

There are no problems if I delete by(foreign).

Thanks

Requesting individual y-titles results in two left-hand side y titles. There is a workaround to this which entails contracting the graph margin so that the first left-hand title is not visible. Otherwise, just turn off the defaults and refer to

help title_options

For your example,

sysuse auto, clear
twoway (scatter price rep78, ytitle("title1", size(medium))) ///
(scatter mpg rep78, yaxis(2) ytitle("title2", size(medium) axis(2))), ///
by(foreign, note("") iytitle graphr(m(l-8 r-4))) scheme(s1color)
