boxgap(10)
The
boxgap()
option controls the size
of the gap among the boxes formed by
the multiple
25
-variables. The default
value is 33, meaning that the distance
between the boxes is 33% of the width
of the boxes. Here, we make the gap
smaller, making the boxes for the

Here, we use the
gap()
option to
control the gap between the college
graduate group and the noncollege
graduate group. Here, we make the gap
three times the width of a box. See
Box : Over options
(163) for more
information about controlling the gap
among boxes created by the
over()
option.

Let's now look at options that allow us to control the color of the boxes. We will first
look at options that control the overall intensity of the color for all the boxes and then show
how you can control the color of each box. We will use the
vg s2c
scheme for the following
examples.
