  • Graph X axis values in descending order

    Hi,
    I am trying to use the data below to graph two variables (Payout1 and payout2). I am using the following command:

    graph twoway line Payout1 Payout2 Payoutratio

    However, I need X axis values (Payoutratio) in descending order. Can you please advise on how to do this?

    Thank you.

    Code:
    * Example generated by -dataex-. To install: ssc install dataex
    clear
    input double(Payoutratio Payout1 Payout2)
