Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

So, where can I turn on obs label on the page you showed? Just choose "Auto Choice" and/or "Symbol Only"? I did both and it made no difference. Still says "Graph has no obs/date axis" and no obs label shows up.

Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

What I see on my EViews 8 is Graph Options -> Graph Elements and I do not find "Symbol/Obs Label". What I found is that there are four modules under Graph Elements: Lines & Symbols, Fill Areas, Bar-Area-Pie, and Boxplots. Which one I should go with? I clicked on Lines & Symbols and...

Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

EViews says "Graph has no obs/date axis". I don't see any obs labels on the scatter.
Yes, if the country names show on the spreadsheet view, then it is structured that way. What obs labels do you see if not the country names?

Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

How do I know "if the workfile is already structured with country as the ID series"? I open the group of GDP and Inflation and see each country's name lined up (in blue) on the far left side of the window. Does this mean it is structured with country as the ID series? If so, that is where ...

Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

As said in the original post, I created a workfile for cross-sectional data. The data were imported to EViews and so there were three series in that workfile, Country (names), GDP, and Inflation. I opened GDP and Inflation as a group and the country names are shown on the left as identifier. But whe...

Re: Label obs in a scatter plot

Yes, I tried that before I posted the question here. That box area is gray and does not allow to type in anything. It says: "Series labels cannot be used with this graph." The reason I guess, as said in the original post, is that "Graph has no obs/date axis." as shown in the Axis...

Label obs in a scatter plot

Hi, I created a workfile with three series. The first one is country names and so it is an alpha series. The second and third are GDP and inflation for each country. Now I generate a scatter plot with GDP on the X axis and inflation on the Y. But my problem is that, when I tried to label each observ...
