MARKERS(variable). Row object markers. The values of the variable are used to cycle through all possible markers.

COLORS(variable). Row object colors. The values of the variable are used to cycle through all colors.

Example

DATA LIST
  /var01 TO var15 rowid gender age.
PREFSCAL var01 TO var15
  /INPUT   = ROW(rowid)
  /OPTIONS = MARKERS(gender) COLORS(age).

• In the joint plot of the common space configuration, the row objects are labeled with the values or value labels of the variable rowid. Additionally, the points are marked according to the values on the variable gender and are colored depending on the values of the variable age.
