X-axis of histogram

[Yaseminn Akcann]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to make a histogram of education variable which is categorical. I used the code below. When I do that, the x axis labels do not show up. I tried different versions and played with graph editor but could not solve it. Could you please help?



histogram education, discrete frequency xtitle("") xlabel(2(2)16, labsize(vsmall) angle(60) valuelabel) graphregion(color(white) )

Data example?

I suspect that the problem is that one or more value labels is absurdly long (else why you are asking for angle(60)?)

Better solutions here might be one or more of

* a horizontal bar chart

* putting value labels on two or more levels

* shortening the value labels
