Remove space in graph title

[Roman Mostazir]

Dear Statalisters,

Is there anyway to reduce the space in my graph title with r-square. Please note that I have no space in the codes when referring the local macro, yet the number in the title is quite spaced out. Any idea, how to get rid of it:

sysuse auto, clear

qui reg mpg weight
loc r2: di %12.3f e(r2)
scatter mpg weight, ti("{bf:R-squared:`r2'}", col(red))

Hi Roman,
You need to change the formatting of the local for the r^2. You have %12.3f, so it is holding 8 blank spaces in front of the number.

Ah ! Carole many thanks, ...
