The setelem command should be used with a graph. So it is true that group01.setelem will not work; you will need to freeze the graph first and use graph01.setelem. graph01.setelem(1) legend("legendtext") should change the legend text. Also, let me emphasize that if you do not specify an ac...

To change the legend text, use the "legend" option with the "setelem" command. For instance, to modify the second series: graph01.setelem(2) legend("new_text") You may use the "axis" command to set the data endpoints for all graphs simultaneously: graph01.axis...

You can define a categorical graph using the "within" and "across" keywords. For instance,

g1.bar within(s1)

Note that if you do not define an across or within series in the dialog, it will produce a standard graph even though you have selected Categorical graph in the dropdown.

There are a few options that are not applied from a template, including the NA Handling option. In general, most options on the Type page are not applied. The command to reapply the option is: graph_name.options connect The NA Handling option, along with many others on the Type page, are available o...

While EViews provides extensive control over the time scale, it does not currently allow for much customization of the data scale. My best suggestion would be to play with the endpoint options mentioned above (Auto, Min/Max, User specified) to see if you can achieve what you're after.

If you are referring to the data scale, EViews allows you to set the endpoints using the options you listed (Auto, Min/Max, User), but not to specify the interval.

Gareth is correct - we don't support rotated text with user positioning. You can get around this when adding text interactively by adding it as left rotated, and then dragging it into place. Good idea though, this capability should be added.

There is not a direct EViews command for this. Your current method is probably the easiest.

Line/Symbol selection should be picked up by new graphs. This is a bug that we're looking into.
