I feel like I must be missing something obvious here, but I am trying to create sets of graphs, one for each country in a panel. Not all countries have coverage for all variables, so I want to be able to use graph combine flexibly. Sometimes the final combined graph should only have two graphs, other times it may have eight graphs, but I would like for the size of the individual subgraphs to remain fixed. Right now, when there are more graphs, they start to shrink. I have tried several iterations, and I don't understand in particular why xsize() and ysize() are not solving this problem for me. Here is the current iteration
I've tried a range of different values for xsize() ysize() and iscale() and using the height and width options for graph export. I was originally hoping to save this as a pdf, so I started by trying that way as well. I tried implementing the solution described here:

I am sure that this partially boils down to me being confused by/misusing aspect ratio specifications vs dimensions, but I am just feeling a bit stumped on how to achieve this.
