The new graphics editor provided in Stata 10, to me, is a bad idea. Instead of focusing on trying to get the figure right in a do file, many people, especially beginners, will take shortcuts and rely heavily on the new editor. This, in long run, is a very bad idea. Once people start to do that, they lose the capability to be able to replicate exactly what they do. If you spend 10 minutes editing a figure, then realize the data is not quite right and need to run the figure command again, then you need another 10 minutes to edit it... you get the idea.
It is a bit disappointing to find that unicode support is still not there. I have been waiting for this for too long...
