Adding measures to the statistics table

You can decide which statistical measures to show in a box plot.

Procedure

In the visualization properties for your box plot, locate the Statistics table section.
Click Add measure to add a new statistical measure.
Edit the expression to show the desired statistical measure. Click for suggestions or to open the expression editor. See Statistical functions for more help on how to write statistical measures as expressions.
The order of the measures in this list determines the order of the measures in the statistics table and you can move measures as desired using drag-and-drop.
See Aggregations and statistical measures for details about the different measures.

Results

The visualization is updated with the selected statistical measures.

You can select which measure to sort the table by and whether to sort ascending or descending by either clicking directly on the measure in the visualization or under Sort by in the Category axis card.

Important: If you have configured a box plot using an earlier version of the statistical measures settings (the Statistics Table page in the visualization properties dialog or the Statistical measures card in the visualization properties panel), you must convert the measures to expressions to use them in the Statistics table card described above. This applies to Spotfire versions older than 14.6.0. On the Statistical measures (legacy version) card, hover over the

icon and click Convert measures to expressions in the tooltip.

Note that once you have converted the measures to expressions and saved the analysis, it might not work as expected when you open the analysis again in a Spotfire version older than 14.6.0.
