highlighting a specific serie in a panel graph

[Luis Pecht]

Hi Statalisters,


Is the a simple way to highlighting the serie id = 160 ,in the following a panel graph?

clear
webuse pennxrate
drop if inlist(id,143,171)
xtline ppp, overlay legend(off)

by highlighting, I mean plotting a thicker line, for instance.

thanks

I found it difficult to get series 160 to show clearly by addling options to xtline. Here is a more direct approach:

line ppp year, lw(thin) lc(gs8) c(L) || line ppp year if id == 160, lw(vthick) legend(order(2 "160"))

Yes Nick, I, also, was not able to implementing it using

addplot(plot)            add other plots to the generated graph

option, in xtline command.

Wondering someone else did it once.

thanks for your reply.

this seems to work:

xtline ppp, overlay legend(off) addplot(line ppp year if id == 160, lw(vthick) legend(order(2 "160")))

to highlighting the serie id = 160.

Sure; #4 works, but I don't think it's clear.
