{title:Description}

{p 4 4 2}
Schemes determine the overall look of a graph; see help {help schemes}.

{p 4 4 2}
The schemes {cmd:lean1} and {cmd:lean2} specify a lean black-and-white look
similar to that used by many scientific journals.


{title:Remarks}

{p 4 4 2}
The schemes {cmd:lean1} and {cmd:lean2} have no background tinting; markers
are black; bars and areas have black outline; y-axis labels are horizontal;
and legends are placed to the right of the plot area. The difference between
the two is that scheme {cmd:lean1} has a framed plot area without gridlines,
while {cmd:lean2} has horizontal gridlines, but no frame. The general idea is
described in:
