twoway scatter ownhome propval100, xlabel(#10) ylabel(#5,
nogrid
)
Using the
nogrid
option, we can
suppress the display of the grid. Note
that this option is placed within the
ylabel()
option, thus suppressing the
grid for the
-axis. If the grid were
absent, and we wished to include it, we
could add the
grid
option. (You can
also specify
grid
or
nogrid
within the
xlabel()
option to control grids for the
x
y
-axis.) For more details, see
Options : Axis labels
(256).

twoway scatter ownhome propval100, xlabel(#10) ylabel(#5, nogrid)
yline(55 75, lwidth(thin) lcolor(black) lpattern(dash))
The
yline()
option is used to add a
thin, black, dashed line to the graph
where
equals 55 and 75.

twoway scatter ownhome propval100,
xscale(alt)
Here, we use the
xscale()
option to
request that the
% homes cost $100K+
x
-axis be placed in its
alternate position, in this case at the
top instead of at the bottom. To learn
more about axis scales, including
suppressing, extending, or relocating
them, see
Options : Axis scales
