setelem in scatter diagrams
Posted: Wed May 02, 2018 2:50 am
As a follow up to the discussion here
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19004&hilit=scatter
I would suggest to improve the treatment of SETELEM when using a scatter diagram. In the current Eviews version,
will, as expected, draw the first Y series with a red circle. But the instruction
will attach the legend to the variable on the X axis, so that to provide a legend to the first (second, third, etc.) Y series I have to call a separate SETELEM instruction. With two Y series what I need is now
which is somewhat counter-intuitive
