Title

blindscheme_fix Bug fix for user-contributed graphics pacakge blindschemes

Daniel Bischof's module "blindschemes" is a valuable contribution
to the collection of available Stata graph schemes. However,
the August 2020 version of his package conflicts with Stata's
norm for graphics schemes in two ways.

Installing this packages fixes these two small "bugs" and thus allows
users to enjoy the benefits of these four schemes without the disadvantages.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Download the "blindschemes" package of four schemes from inside Stata
by typing "ssc install blindschemes, replace" at the Stata prompt.

2. Then install this package. If Stata complains, you must "force"
the installation by typing at the Stata prompt:

. view net install blindschemes_fix

and selecting the "force" option. Alternatively, from the Stata prompt, type:

. net install blindschemes_fix, replace from("http://digital.cgdev.org/doc/stata/MO/Misc")

DESCRIPTION

Here are the two bugs in version 1.4 of the package -blindschemes-
and an explanation of how -blindschemes_fix- repairs these bugs.

(1) Stata does not display links to the -blindschemes- help files,
as it should when the user types:

. graph query, schemes

This package fixes this problem by supplying dummy help files
with names that properly begin with the prefix
"scheme_" that Stata expects for the help files of graphics
schemes. Users can then consult either:

. help plottig

or the Stata conforming help file that links to it:

. help scheme_plottig

(2) After displaying a graph in Stata's Graph Window, it is usefull
to see how that graph would look with different schemes.
The user can experiment with different schemes by selecting:

Edit -> Apply new scheme ...

from the drop-down menu at the top of the Graph Window.
However, the 07aug2020 version 1.4 of the "plottigblind" scheme
contains a bug which forces it to appear on this list as "s2color".
This package fixes this problem by replacing the 07aug2020 version
of this scheme with an otherwise identical scheme file that
properly labels the scheme. To see the bug fix, type:

. viewsource scheme-plottigblind.scheme

and observe the edits in the lines beginning with the word "label".
