But I could never figure out how to change the label on top of the colour bar/legend.
label(subtitle("It goes here"))
Example
sysuse auto, clear
pwcorr price mpg trunk weight length turn foreign, sig
matrix C = r(C)
matrix sig = r(sig)
heatplot C, values(label(sig) format(%9.3f)) color(hcl diverging, intensity(.6)) legend(off) aspectratio(1) legend(subtitle("Correlations"))

Maybe they don't go out in the rain, or maybe I'm not looking out the window so much but it's quite late, often see the first before mid-April.
I've always thought that the "Route du Rhum" yacht race from St Malo (in a region I often visit) via West Africa to the Antilles had unfortunate overtones. Explicitly following the route of the triangular trade, for instance ("l'itinéraire de la traite négrière", the slave-trade route, in the article).
So it's interesting to see talk of a "Route du Pardon". Only it turns out the apology is not for slavery, but for having being caught cheating in a previous race.
