Subject: st: subtitle margins on sid- by-side boxplots.

I'm using Stata 10.  In a graph similar to this:

sysuse auto, clear
graph box price, by(foreign,row(1)) sub(,orient(vertical) al(middle)
j(left))

I can't understand why there is so much "vertical" space in the subtitles
above each boxplot.  I've tried:

graph box price, by(foreign,row(1)) sub(,orient(vertical) al(middle) j(left)
margin(zero))

but this doesn't do anything.  It seems like the size of the subtitle region
is always the same as the size of the plot, even if I were to specify
-sub("")-.  Is there any way around this?  (The reason I'm using
-orient(vertical)- is because my value labels can get long, and end up
overlapping otherwise.)

I'd appreciate any help in this matter.  Thank you.
