Change title and titlegap of graph

[Julian Schaper]

Dear all,

I have combined npgraphs showing Engelcurves, calculated using npregress kernel. However im not satisfied with the way they look when combined, since the y-titles collide with the values of the y-axis so it looks shabby. That is, I would like the gap to be slightly larger. Also since I will use the combined graphs in my thesis I will use a caption and since the ytitle and xtitle sufficiently inform the reader about the information contained in the graph I would like to omit the title above.

I have used the following code:

foreach var of varlist w_beef w_pork w_poultry{
npregress kernel  `var' net_income_month
qui npgraph, name(Engel_`var', replace)
matrix A = e(bwidth)*5
npregress kernel  `var' net_income_month, bwidth(A)
npgraph,  msymbol(cirlce_hollow) msize(vsmall) ylabel(0.(0.2)1 yscale(titlegap(3)) title(""), format(%9.1f)) name(Engel_`var', replace)
}

However, when running this code I get an error saying that yscale() is not allowed. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong or if there is a smoother way?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Best,
Julian

-yscale()- is a separate option and not a suboption of -ylabel()-.

ylabel(0.(0.2)1 yscale(titlegap(3))

should be

 
 ylabel(0.(0.2)1) yscale(titlegap(3)) 

To omit the title, include

title("")
