      BoxWidth

Specifies the default width of all boxes in pixels. Enter a value between 0 and 100.

      Default Title

Specifies the default title of new box plots. For example, Box Plot.

      Font

      LegendVisible

      MarkerSize

      Measures

Lets you specify which measures that should be shown in the Statistics table when you insert a new box plot.

Type the names of the desired measures (using the true function name, short form and no whitespaces) in the String Collection Editor and click OK.

For example:

Avg

StdDev

L95

MeanDeviation

      ReferencePoints

Lets you specify which reference points should be shown when you insert a new box plot.

In the BoxPlotPointPreference Collection Editor you can click Add and then modify the added reference point so that it is displayed in a certain color, line style or marker shape. Here you also enter the method  to use by typing the true function name (e.g., Avg or MeanDeviation).

Markers are always used to display abstractions of data ranges and lines are always used for real data points. Depending on which method you select, only one of the LineStyle or MarkerShape settings will be relevant.

Note: You must change the Visible setting to True for the reference point to be shown in the box plots.

      Show95ConfidenceInterval

      SortByMeasure
