Adding labels in binscatter

[Lindsey Buck]

Hi everyone,

I would like, instead of my variable name, for the variable value to be what is on the Y-axis. Can you help? I put some code below. I tried adding labels, ylabel(labels) and some other things but they didn't work and I can't seem to find on google how to do this with binscatter. THanks!

binscatter `v' poolednormscore if sample==1, nq(20) line(lfit) rd(0)
    graph export "C:\Users\lib18002\Dropbox\AFST\output\analysis\1ststage\ `v'_balance.png", as(png) replace

This references Michael Stepner's -binscatter- (ssc desc binscatter).

You can store the variable labels as macros and then pass them to -binscatter-.

sysuse auto, clear
local ytitle: variable label mpg
local xtitle: variable label price
binscatter mpg price, ytitle(`ytitle') xtitle(`xtitle')
