The GPLOT Procedure

Example 2: Labeling and Sizing Plot Bubbles

Procedure features:
BUBBLE statement options:
BCOLOR=
BFONT=
BLABEL=
BSIZE=
CAXIS=
HAXIS=
VAXIS=
VMINOR
Other features:
AXIS statement
Data set: REFLIB.JOBS
Sample library member: GR21N02

This example modifies the code in Example 1. It shows how BUBBLE statement options control the appearance of bubbles and their labels. It also shows how AXIS statements can modify the plot axes.
