Plotting a 3 variable TS graph via the GUI (highlight variables and > right click for graph option) . Only 5 years to plot 2018 to 2022. >

Hi Sven -the data are annual . 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022.    The fact that each year only contains the aggregated monthly data is irrelevant. As far as Gretl is concerned it is has been given 5 observations each recording the Jan-June total of trade. I have attached the file. You can ignore the log transforms on the variables. I suggest you highlight variables 1,2 and 3 , right click and request a time series plot. Hope this helps

And actually, I can reproduce the problem with a shipped dataset such as jgm-data.gdt if I restrict the sample to only the first five observations (or less). Maybe no one has noticed this before because it's not so common to plot short series. But certainly looks like a bug. thanks sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users(a)gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-leave(a)gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/

B It seems to me that the cause is the automatic way that gnuplot (the underlying program that gretl uses for plotting) calculates the number / frequency of the tic marks. Indeed, if I add the line set xtics 1 to the plotting commands then I get rid of the non-integer tics. (To use this workaround, you have to right-click on your plot, choose "save to session as icon", then in the icon view window you'll have a "Plot 1" icon, right-click on it and choose "edit plot commands", and there you will see the code in gnuplot syntax in a new editor window. Add the line above, click on the save button, and then on the run/execute button.) cheers sven _______________________________________________ Gretl-users mailing list -- gretl-users(a)gretlml.univpm.it To unsubscribe send an email to gretl-users-leave(a)gretlml.univpm.it Website: https://gretlml.univpm.it/postorius/lists/gretl-users.gretlml.univpm.it/
