Positioning the Inset in the Margins

Using the INSET statement you can also position an inset in one of the four margins surrounding the plot area using the margin keywords LM, RM, TM, or BM, as illustrated in Figure 17.126. The INSET2 statement cannot be used to produce an inset in a margin.

Positioning Insets in the Margins


For an example of an inset placed in the right margin, see Figure 17.123. Margin positions are recommended if a large number of statistics are listed in the INSET statement. If you attempt to display a lengthy inset in the interior of the plot, it is likely that the inset will collide with the data display.
