Dear Stata Users,
I‘ve been tried to graph twoway plots (connected, scatter, etc.) and made them more readable. But in some cases, the markers' text label will all overlay with each other, so I wonder if there are some tricks in Stata to solve this kind of question (-jitter()- option seems ineffective). As I know, this goal can be reached in some software. I paste Stata code, dataset and plots (mlabel overly vs mlabel disperse) as follows:
