graph hbar wage, over(grade4) over(union)
Consider this graph, where we show the
mean wages broken down by grade4
and union .Using graph hbar displays
the chart as a horizontal bar chart,
which can be useful when you have
many categories to compare.

graph hbar wage, over(grade4, gap(*3) ) over(union)
We can change the gap between the
levels of grade4 . Here, we make that
gap three times as large as it normally
would have been. This leads to thinner
bars with a greater gap between them.

graph hbar wage, over(grade4, gap(*.3) ) over(union)
Here, we shrink the gap between the
levels of grade4 , making the gaps 30%
of the size they normally would have
been. This leads to wider bars with a
smaller gap between them.
