graph matrix propval100 ownhome borninstate, msize(vlarge)
mfcolor(gs13) mlcolor(gs0)
The
mfcolor()
(marker fill color) and
mlcolor()
(marker line color) options
allow you to control the fill color (inside
color) and outline color (periphery
color) of the markers. Below, we make
the fill color light gray by specifying
mfcolor(gs13)
and the line color black
by specifying
mlcolor(gs0)
.Weuse
the
msize()
option to make the
markers very large to help see the effect
of these options.

graph matrix propval100 ownhome borninstate,
mlabel(stateab)
We can label the markers using the
mlabel()
(marker label) option. In this
example, we label the markers with the
two-letter postal abbreviation by
supplying the option
mlabel(stateab)
.
Even though many of the labels
overlap, the most interesting
observations are those that stand out
and have readable labels, such as
DC
and
NV
. For additional details, see
Options : Marker labels
(247).

graph matrix propval100 ownhome borninstate, mlabel(stateab)
mlabsize(large)
You can use the
mlabsize()
(marker
label size) option to control the size of
the marker label. Here, we indicate
that the marker labels should be large.
You can also specify the size of the
marker label as a multiple of the
original size of the marker label; e.g.,
specifying
mlabsize(*1.5)
would make
the labels 1.5 times their normal size.
