Each confidence interval is by default shown as a vertical line. The groups on the horizontal axis are tacitly plotted at 1, ... , number of intervals with value labels from the actual values or variable names. Options ------- ^by(^byvar^)^ defines a grouping variable. It is only allowed when a single variable is specified. ^by( )^ is treated as categorical, not measured. ^level(^#^)^, ^poisson^, ^binomial^ and ^exposure(^varname^)^ are all options of ^ci^. See help on @ci@. ^total^ adds a final line showing the mean and confidence interval for all groups specified. It is only allowed in conjunction with ^by( )^. graph_options are options of ^graph^. See help on @graph@. Note that ^xlabel(1/^number of intervals^)^ is wired in. ^symbol^ defaults to ^"oii"^ (a circle for the mean and invisible symbols for the the mean). ^connect^ defaults to ^".II"^. Titles filled in by default may be blanked out or, more generally, overwritten by options such as ^b2(" ") or t1(" ")^.
