Change name of legend

[Anna Stubbendorff]

Hi!

How do I change the name of my legend? I want it to say that my line is for women, even if i only have one line.

regress HGB Total_CO2
twoway (lfit HGB Total_CO2, lcolor(red) lpattern(dash)), legend(label (1 "Women")) ///
ytitle(Hemoglobin) xtitle("Dietary GHGE (kg/day)")

Thank you!!!

I changed it but it still not appears:

regress HGB Total_CO2
twoway (lfit HGB Total_CO2, lcolor(red) lpattern(dash)), legend(order(1 "Women")) ///
ytitle(Hemoglobin) xtitle("Dietary GHGE (kg/day)")

Stata suppresses the legend if there is only 1 item. The rationale is that this information is better expressed in the title or the y-axis title. But here is how to turn it on.

regress HGB Total_CO2
twoway (lfit HGB Total_CO2, lcolor(red) lpattern(dash)), legend(on order(1 "Women")) ///
ytitle(Hemoglobin) xtitle("Dietary GHGE (kg/day)")
