Placing dates on the horizontal axis of shock decomposition

[Aldo]

I want to put quarterly dates starting in 2002Q1 on horizontal axis of graphs of my shock decompositions?
How could I do this?

[jpfeifer]

Try the dseries object. An example is at https://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare/blob/master/tests/dates/fs2000.mod, with the data being at https://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare/blob/master/tests/dates/fsdat_simul.m

Dear jpfeifer,
I im getting this message error:

Code: Select all

Are you using Dynare 4.5?

[Aldo]

Yes dear jpfeifer, I am using Dynare 4.5.0 in Matlab 2015a.

Please, how could I fix this?

Thanks

ALdo

That is strange, because I am getting

Error using print_info (line 110)
Likelihood is not a number (NaN) or a complex number

Error in print_info (line 110)
error('Likelihood is not a number (NaN) or a complex number');

Error in initial_estimation_checks (line 175)
print_info(info, DynareOptions.noprint, DynareOptions)

Error in dynare_estimation_1 (line 165)
oo_ =
initial_estimation_checks(objective_function,xparam1,dataset_,dataset_info,M_,estim_params_,options_,bayestopt_,bounds,oo_);

Error in dynare_estimation (line 105)
dynare_estimation_1(var_list,dname);

Error in prometheo (line 2899)

Error in dynare (line 223)

which happens in a different line, suggesting that you were using a different mod-file than the one you provided.
