Title position

[Dario Maimone Ansaldo Patti]

Dear All

I have the following graph:

I generated it using:

twoway(line ec_glob year, sort), title({bf: Figure xx}: Economic globalization in the World,size(Medium-small) justification(left)) ytitle(Economic globalization) xtitle(Time)

My idea was that if I use justification(left) I could achive what I want, i.e. left alignment, but I do not get what I need. While I can choose position(11), this is not what I want, because I would like to align the title with the Y-axis. Usually, I open the graph editor and then I double-click on the title and I use position offset and x offset to align the title as I like.

However, I would like to be able to x offset directly from the command I use in Stata. I was unable to find out how. Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks for the help you may provide.

Dario

It is always easier if you phrase questions in terms of data you supply or a dataset accessible to all users. Does this help?
