Scheme description: ukri graph scheme


{marker syntax}{...}
{title:Syntax}

{pstd}
To use the {cmd: ukri} (or {cmd:ukripres}) scheme, you might specify it as an option in your graph command:

{p 8 16 2}
{cmd:. graph}
...{cmd:,}
...
{cmd:scheme(ukri)}

{pstd}
or set the scheme before running your graph command:

{p 8 16 2}
{cmd:. set}
{cmd:scheme}
{cmd:ukri}
[{cmd:,}
{cmdab:perm:anently}]

{pstd}
See {manhelpi scheme_option G-3} and {manhelp set_scheme G-2:set scheme}.


{marker description}{...}
{title:Description}

{pstd}
Schemes determine the overall look of a graph; see
{manhelp schemes G-4:schemes intro}.

{pstd}
The {cmd:ukri} and {cmd:ukripres} schemes follows the UKRI 
{browse "https://www.ukri.org/about-us/contact-us/brand-guidelines/":branding guidelines}, 
interpreting these for use in Stata graphs. Since the author works at an MRC unit, it 
uses the MRC colours as primary (each council has different primary colours). It
was written as a quick way to use the UKRI corporate palette of colours, 
and released on SSC in case it is of use to other UKRI employees.

{pstd}
In writing this scheme I made some opinionated alterations to some of the defaults
and quirks from Stata's own schemes. The scheme is fairly
minimal in style. Colours used are from UKRI's RGB colour specification. There
are faint horizontal grid lines. A vertical axis line is given but 
no vertical gridlines. There are no ticks. Dots in scatterplots are hollow by
default. The height-to-width ratio of the {cmd:ukri} scheme is 4:5 by default.

{pstd}
The {cmd:ukripres} scheme changes the graph size and aspect to work better with 
16:9 presentations. The xsize is 5 and ysize is 9, so height-to-width ratio is 5:9.

{pstd}
Graph schemes are skeletons, giving default specifications for general graphs;
any defaults can be changed within graph commands. For example, if ticks and
vertical grid lines are desired, these can always be included.


{marker colours}{...}
{title:Colours}

{pstd}
The ukri scheme includes various non-standard colours named (in alphabetical order)
ukriblue, ukricoral, ukridkorange, ukridkred, ukrigreen, ukrigrey, ukriltblue, 
ukrimaroon, ukrimint, ukrinavy, ukriorange, ukripink, ukripurple, ukrired, 
ukriteal and ukriyellow. These colours are packaged with the scheme and can
be referred to in the same way as Stata's base colours, and need not be used
with the scheme. All available colours can be viewed with
{cmd:graph} {cmd:query} {it:color}.


{marker fonts}{...}
{title:Fonts}

{pstd}
There are elements to the UK Medical Research Council's branding beyond
colour. The corporate typefaces are Arial in general or Moderat 
for more professional materials. See {help graph_set} for details of how
to change the font. Note that this cannot be set within a graph scheme
and setting the font will need setting explicitly for your desired output
format. For example, to draw a graph and export it as .svg, Windows users
would first need to type

{p 8 16 2}
{cmd:. graph}
{cmd:set}
{cmd:svg}
{cmd:fontface}
{cmd:"Arial"}
 
{pstd}
to retain Arial as the font in the .eps figure. (The name of the font
may be different for different operating systems.) Similar code does the
same thing replacing eps with 'window', 'print', 'ps' or 'svg'.

{pstd}
The code for setting a font when exporting as .pdf is slightly different:

{p 8 16 2}
{cmd:. translator}
{cmd:set}
{cmd:Graph2pdf}
{cmd:fontface}
{cmd:"Arial"}
