Hi

When plotting a graph with, for example, three lines then the last line is placed on top of the others. Is it possible to control the layers on the lines? For example in the code below I would like to have the first line (in this case "Base") on top, i.e. the blue one, but Eviews places "Scen2" on top. I could of course swap and draw "Base" as the last line but then the order of the legend would be "wrong".

Code: Select all

Series Base
Series Scen1
Series Scen2
Base.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16
Scen1.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,14,15,16,17,17
Scen2.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,10,11,11,12,13,14
Graph g.line base scen1 scen2
g.setelem(1) linecolor(Blue)
g.setelem(2) linecolor(Red)
g.setelem(3) linecolor(Green)

Not currently. The order of the series in the group is what dictates the draw order.

I believe this would do the trick:

Code: Select all


WfCreate a 2000 2015
Series Base
Series Scen1
Series Scen2
Base.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16
Scen1.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,14,15,16,17,17
Scen2.fill 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,10,11,11,12,13,14
Graph g.line base scen1 scen2 scen1 base
g.setelem(1) linecolor(Blue)
g.setelem(2) linecolor(Red)
g.setelem(3) linecolor(Green)
g.setelem(4) linecolor(Red)
g.setelem(5) linecolor(Blue)
g.name(4)
g.name(5)
