I'm creating a variety of graphs, and no matter the data being plotted on a given graph, all the graphs need the same y axis, the same range, and the same labels. I will calculate the correct range myself, and part of that decision is a substantive consideration. Therefore, I need control over the range of the y axis. That is, I need to have true control over the range, not approximate suggestions that Stata might consider if it feels like it.
After spending a lot of time in the manuals and trying various things, I've narrowed down the problem to range within yscale. I've recreated the problem with the auto dataset:
As shown below, this creates a chart with only three labels on the Y axis (0, 5000, 10000, and 15000). The Y axis looks like it probably does go to 49000, but obviously the Y labels aren't what I asked for, and the grid isn't either. Is there a way to force Stata to create a Y axis that actually uses the y labels that I specified?

Code:
sysuse auto.dta scatter price mpg, yscale(range(0 7000 14000 21000 28000 35000 42000 49000 ))
