Dear all,
I have a panel dataset and want to plot certain variables over time. I
constructed a time index applying: tindex = year*100 + month, and hence
I obtain for November 2014 something like "201411".
For plotting, the following command is used under a previously
restricted dataset (evaluate data only for a single country using):
<hansl>
smpl country==1 --restricted
gnuplot x1 x2 tindex --with-lines --single-yaxis --output="@fname" \
{ set term eps font 'Helvetica,13' lw 3 ; \
set xdata time ; \
set timefmt "%Y%m" ; set format x "%m/%Y" ; }
</hansl>
Unfortunately, the x-axis is not correctly shown. The temporary output
text-file you can find below. Does anybody have a clue what's wrong here?
Thanks,
Artur
