Create a boxplot chart in everviz

Follow the steps in this article to create a boxplot chart in everviz.

Boxplot charts are great for seeing how a category’s values are distributed over four quartiles. A box with trailing ‘whiskers’ represents each category in the chart. The box represents the first quartile of a category’s values and each of the three whiskers represents subsequent quartiles.

The example we’ll create lets us see data for three categories plotted as boxes and whiskers.

To create a boxplot chart:

Launch the project wizard and select Chart to launch the chart wizard
Select Boxplot from the Chart type section to the left of the chart wizard’s screen. Notice that the preview pane changes to reflect the chart type you’ve chosen
Click Next to move to the Data step where you can enter the data for your chart or click Next again to use the default data provided
Click the top-left cell (A1) in the data table and press CTRL+A to select all the data in it
Press the delete key to remove the example data
Copy this example data and paste it into the data table at the top-left cell (A1). You’ll see the newly added data reflected in the preview chart
Click Next to move to the Design screen where you can choose a theme for your chart. Click an available theme to see how it looks, or stick with the default theme
Click Next to move to the Text & Annotations screen where you can add contextual information to your chart, such as a title, axis labels and a caption
Click Next to move to the Save or Publish screen where you can save your chart for later amendment or use, or publish your chart
Alternatively, you can click the Continue in Editor button to edit the chart further with more granular options
