Set the format of bars and the box part of box-whisker plots. This kind of graph looks better if you add a grid line from the first tab of the Format Axis dialog and flip it to be horizontal. You can also plot 'Symbol (one symbol per column)' and specify mean or median. You need to have at least four values in order to create a box-and-whiskers graph.īecause whiskers can be done in various ways, it is essential to mention in a graph's figure legend which way they were made. Or you can choose to superimpose each individual point on the box and whisker plot. Any data beyond these whiskers are shown as points. Other choices show specified percentiles, which seems more logical. Traditional Tukey whiskers go 1.5 times the interquartile distance or to the highest or lowest point, whichever is shorter. There are seven ways to plot box-and-whisker graphs. To do this, choose Before-and-after as the style for data sets A and C, and Aligned dot plot as the style for data sets B and D. Or connect data sets A and B as before-and-after and data sets C and D, but not B and C.

It can also be useful to use different styles for each bar of a graph, as below:

Note that your choice applies to only one data set column unless you used the global button to choose all or a subset of columns. Choose from a simple bar (with or without error bars), a scatter plot, an aligned dot plot, box and whiskers, before and after plot, or floating bars. Changes you make after that will then apply to all data sets, or to data sets you select from the Global button.Ĭhoose how you want to display your data for each data set. Or click the Global button just to the right. To change all or some data sets on the graph (for example to make all symbols larger):ĭrop the list of data set names and choose -Change ALL data sets. Note that a fitted curve is treated as a separate data set. Click OK to redraw the graph with all the changes.

Then select another data set and choose settings for that data set. Select a data set from the list, and choose the bar format and fill, lines, and error bars for that data set. You can also change all the symbols in selected data sets.ĭouble-click on any graph symbol or bar to open the Format Graph dialog. If you want to change the look of a single column, use the right-click menu. Use this dialog to change the look of all the columns in a data set.
