/// When an histogram is drawn with the option `COLZ, a palette is automatically drawn
/// vertically on the right side of the plot. It is possible to move and resize this
/// vertical palette as shown on the left plot. The right plot demonstrates that, when the
/// width of the palette is larger than its height, the palette is automatically drawn
/// horizontally.
