Rdplot graph combining

[Muza Gadimova]

Hello,

I am running the rdplot command and I would like to combine different graphs in one graph. Namely, these are my commands

rdplot sec_sch rv1 if west_rural==1, p(2)

rdplot sec_sch rv1 if west_urban==1, p(2)

and I would like to combine the results of west urban and west rural regions in one graph. How can I do that?
Thanks in advance

Thank you. But I couldn't find a way to put two graphs into one graph with that command.

rdplot sec_sch rv1 if west_rural==1, p(2)
graph save sec_sch_west_ruralp2, replace

rdplot sec_sch rv1 if west_rural==1, p(1)
graph save sec_sch_west_ruralp1, replace

graph combine sec_sch_west_ruralp2.gph sec_sch_west_ruralp1.gph, rows(1) cols(1)

These are my commands but they produce two different graphs in one picture while what I need is to have one graph, and one with dashed line and the other with solid lines. Is that possible with this command?

graph combine does not allow you to modify the original graphs. You would need to fix line patterns in the original.

How can I change the style and coloring of the lines in rdplot command? Help rdplot doesn't show any options.

the help file shows the following option: " graph_options(gphopts)" and an example of its use is given in the help file; it is possible that more is shown in one of the SJ articles which are cited in the help file and are freely available at the StataCorp website
