Band Charts

[KUN0]

I have the following programs in Eviews 8 (Left side of screenshot) and Eviews 9 (Right side of screenshot). My midpoint line has disappeared. Has the syntax changed or is this a bug? I wasn't able to find out in the documentation. My Eviews 9 Build is: July 28, 2015


wfcreate(wf = "", page = "Daily") d5 1990 2015
pageselect daily
smpl @all

series top=3
series bottom=1
series mid=2

smpl 2010 2015
graph cht.band bottom top mid
cht.setelem(1) axis(l) legend("Band") fillcolor(237,236,231)
cht.setelem(2) axis(l) legend("")
cht.setelem(3) axis(l) legend("Middle")
cht.legend +display position(0.6,-0.24) +inbox
cht.axis(l) range(0,5)
cht.addtext(t) ""

Kun0,

Sorry for the late reply. After further investigation it isn't a bug, change the

Code: Select all

graph cht.band bottom top mid

to

Code: Select all

group g bottom top mid freeze(cht) g.mixed band(bottom,top) line(mid)

With the introduction of the new mixed graph types, EViews 9 will no longer default the extraneous series (mid in your case) to a line graph. You now have to specify a mixed graph type.
