More graph programming questions

How do I program so that the series in a line graph are renamed?
For instance, if I have F_VA, G_VA and I want these to show up in ledgend as "France Value Added" and "Germany Value Added"
How would I program a graph with 2 axes, where one of the axes is inverted?
say for instance, I have F_CAPEX and EU_UNCERTAINTY, France Capex and the EU uncertainty index. I want the EU uncertainty index to show up on an axes that is inverted.
Many thanks

Use:
Code: Select all
mygraph.name(1) France Value Added
mygraph.name(2) Germany Value Added
To answer the second part, you will have to put the second series on the right axis and then invert it
Code: Select all
mygraph.setelem(2) axis(r)
mygraph.axis(right) invert

Thanks so much Jason!
How would I program it to give the graph a name say "Value-Added Investment" ?
Finally if I have number of countries for the series how would I do this as a loop
Other then
show VA_France.Line
show VA_Germany.LIne
show VA_Spain.Line
show VA_Greece.Line
and then the freeze command with each of them.
etc

Sorry I meant to ask how you would loop the renaming of a series in a graph. So I have VA_graph.line.
How would I loop it so that I can rename all the series in the graph?
VA_graph.name(1) France
VA_graph.name(2) Germany
VA_graph.name(3) Italy
VA_graph.name(4) Spain
VA_graph.name(5) Euro Area
VA_graph.name(6) UK
I would also like to add % to the y axis title. How do I program so that axes are labeled.
Thanks

With regards to above.
mygraph.setelem(2) axis(r)
mygraph.axis(right) invert
What if I wanted the right inverted axis to start at a certain value?

All of these commands are listed in the graph section of the Object Reference pdf

for !i=1 to 6
va_graph.name(!i) @word(%names, !i)

Hmm... the loop above doesn't seem to work for me.

when I use this I just get for each series
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 1)
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 2)
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 3)
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 4)
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 5)
@word("France Germany Italy Spain ""Euro Area"" UK", 6)
