graph box wage, nooutsides
over(occ7) asyvars showyvars
legend(off)
Even though the
showyvars
option
sounds like it would work only with
multiple
25
-variables, it also works when
you combine the
over()
and
asyvars
options. As before, we suppress the
legend in this example using the
legend(off)
option.

legend(label(1 "Professional") label(2 "Management"))
We use the
legend(label())
option to
change the labels for the first and
second variables in the legend. Note
that you use a separate
label()
option
for each bar. This is in contrast to the
relabel()
option, where all the label
assignments were placed in one
relabel()
option; see
Box : Cat axis
(168).

legend(rows(2) colfirst)
In this example, we use the
legend(rows(2) colfirst)
options to
display the legend in two rows and to
order the keys by column (instead of
the default, which is by row). This
yields keys that are more adjacent to
the boxes that they label.
