Horizontal bar graph with SD

[Buyadaa Oyunchimeg]

Dear Stata users,

I am wondering, is there anyway to create horizontal bar graph with SD using -serrbar- ?
May anyone help me with this.

Code:

serrbar meanapc sdapc groups, mvopts(recast(bar) barw(0.4) base(0) bfcolor(none)) xline(0) 

Thank you so much.
Best wishes,
Oyun

We can't see your data to play with it. I rather fear that you want what is variously called a dynamite, detonator or plunger plot, but on its side. Those are search terms to find threads and references here and elsewhere on why that is a poor kind of plot to use.

That aside, this shows some technique:

webuse assembly, clear 
gen upper = mean + 2 * std 
gen lower = mean - 2 * std 
twoway bar mean date, horizontal bfcolor(none) base(0) || rcap lower upper date, horizontal xla(0(40)220) yla(, ang(h))

Incidentally, I am listed generously as the author of serrbar. All that means is that for Stata 6 I made some suggestions to generalize the existing code a little, probably in reaction to questions on Statalist. There are much better graph commands to use to show your data.
