graph bar wage, over(occ7,
label(angle(45)
)) over(collgrad)
This graph shows wages broken down
by occupation and by whether one
graduated college. The
label(angle(45))
option is added to
rotate the labels for occupation by 45
degrees. If this had been omitted, the
labels would have overlapped each
other.

label(alternate)
) over(collgrad)
Compare this graph with the previous
example. This example uses the
label(alternate)
strategy to avoid
overlapping by alternating the labels for
occupation.
