The issue is still present, but I have noticed some strange behavior. If I make the graph object smaller in EViews, the dashed lines appear correctly. However, if I make the graph wider, the dashed lines disappear. Please take a look.

Re: Line pattern not applied in mixed-frequency graphs (displays solid line instead)
Hi, Thanks for the reply. I still suspect this is a bug, so I have created a workfile to help you reproduce the issue. The graph below was generated using the code provided, running in EViews 12: feb5_eviews12.jpg However, running the same code in EViews 14 produces this result: feb5_eviews14.jpg Co...

Line pattern not applied in mixed-frequency graphs (displays solid line instead)
I’d like to report a possible bug related to line patterns in mixed-frequency graphs. When I plot a series in a mixed-frequency graph and set the line pattern to a “spaced/dashed” style (i.e., a line pattern with spaces), the rendered graph displays a solid line across the entire sample instead of t...

Re: Model object: Scenario gap decomposition
Note that by defining the comparison scenario as t-1, the decomposition can be used to analyse the contributions to the change in the variable over time, e.g.: smpl @first+4 @last for %v y z x genr {%v}_lag={%v}_act(-4) next smpl 2015 2020 exec .\decompose_single_spec(model=m, spool=s, variable=y) _...

Re: Model object: Scenario gap decomposition
The following example demonstrates this decomposition method. The attached program initializes a quarterly workfile and simulates a Data Generating Process (DGP) in which regressors x and z follow stochastic trends and drive y via a linear relationship with Gaussian noise. The script generates these...

Re: backfade ?
I followed up with the IT department regarding the issue. We previously had an old EV14, which they’ve now updated, but unfortunately, this did not resolve the backfade problem. As for my version, the black appears as expected. Would it be possible to include, in the next release, support for editin...

Re: backfade ?
I had the IT department change the settings as suggested, but the background is still gray:
any other ideas for how I can change it to white?

Re: backfade ?
I don’t control the EViews version on the server, that’s handled by our IT department. We have a master EViews program that runs automatically every hour, and I was hoping to include a command in that program to set the graph options correctly. Is there any way to do that through the program itself?

Re: backfade ?
The problem persists even though each graph object in the multigraph is formatted with the code {%gr}.options frameaxes(lbrt) framewidth(0.5) gridwidth(0.5) gridcolor({%gridcolor}) gridcust(year, 1) fillcolor(@rgb(255,255,255)) backcolor(@rgb(255,255,255)) backfade(none) color background.

Re: backfade ?
Thank you for your suggestion. Just to clarify, backfade(none) and backcolor(@rgb(255,255,255)) were already activated in my initial post, so it’s strange that the server output still shows a faded background even though the code is identical. Could you please check the attached workfile (created by...

backfade ?
When I use my own copy of EViews 14 and run an add-in to format a graph object that includes the following command: {%gr}.options size({!width}, {!height}) frameaxes(lbrt) framewidth(0.5) gridwidth(0.5) gridcolor(ltgray) gridcust(year, 1) fillcolor(@rgb(255,255,255)) backcolor(@rgb(255,255,255)) col...

comma as decimal separator
Is there a command in EViews to set comma as decimal separator in graph axis labels and output? Manually, this option is available by ticking “Comma as decimal” in Graphics defaults, but can it be enabled via command or script for automation purposes? If not, could this feature be considered for fut...

Enhancing the Model Object Functionality - updated list
Thank you for the great work on improving the model object in EViews. There are some important functionalities that should be added: Optimal policy : It should be possible to run optimal policy experiments where the simulations determine the paths of one or more instrument variables that minimize th...
