Box

Overview

The box trace type is used to display data as a box plot, which shows the distribution of data based on their quartiles, medians, and potential outliers. It's useful for statistical visualizations, as it highlights data spread and central tendency while accounting for variability.

You can control various aspects of the plot, such as the orientation, box and whisker styles, marker symbols, and points display. Additionally, you can show or hide outliers and configure hover labels for enhanced interaction.

Common Uses

  • Distribution Analysis: Understanding the distribution of quest-related data.
  • Outlier Detection: Identifying outliers in quest performance metrics.
  • Comparative Analysis: Comparing the performance of knights on different quests.

  1. Set several traces linked to the same position axis or matching axes to the same alignmentgroup. This controls whether bars compute their positional range dependently or independently.
  2. If "true", the mean of the box(es)' underlying distribution is drawn as a dashed line inside the box(es). If "sd" the standard deviation is also drawn. Defaults to "true" when mean is set. Defaults to "sd" when sd is set Otherwise defaults to "false".
  3. If "outliers", only the sample points lying outside the whiskers are shown If "suspectedoutliers", the outlier points are shown and points either less than 4"Q1-3"Q3 or greater than 4"Q3-3"Q1 are highlighted (see outliercolor) If "all", all sample points are shown If "false", only the box(es) are shown with no sample points Defaults to "suspectedoutliers" when marker.outliercolor or marker.line.outliercolor is set. Defaults to "all" under the q1/median/q3 signature. Otherwise defaults to "outliers".
  4. Assigns extra data each datum. This may be useful when listening to hover, click and selection events. Note that, "scatter" traces also appends customdata items in the markers DOM elements
  5. Sets the x coordinate step for multi-box traces set using q1/median/q3.
  6. Sets the y coordinate step for multi-box traces set using q1/median/q3.
  7. Sets the fill color. Defaults to a half-transparent variant of the line color, marker color, or marker line color, whichever is available.
  8. Determines which trace information appear on hover. If none or skip are set, no information is displayed upon hovering. But, if none is set, click and hover events are still fired.
  9. Sets the horizontal alignment of the text content within hover label box. Has an effect only if the hover label text spans more two or more lines
  10. Sets the background color of the hover labels for this trace
  11. Sets the border color of the hover labels for this trace.
  12. HTML font family - the typeface that will be applied by the web browser. The web browser will only be able to apply a font if it is available on the system which it operates. Provide multiple font families, separated by commas, to indicate the preference in which to apply fonts if they aren't available on the system. The Chart Studio Cloud (at https://chart-studio.plotly.com or on-premise) generates images on a server, where only a select number of fonts are installed and supported. These include "Arial", "Balto", "Courier New", "Droid Sans",, "Droid Serif", "Droid Sans Mono", "Gravitas One", "Old Standard TT", "Open Sans", "Overpass", "PT Sans Narrow", "Raleway", "Times New Roman".
  13. Sets the default length (in number of characters) of the trace name in the hover labels for all traces. -1 shows the whole name regardless of length. 0-3 shows the first 0-3 characters, and an integer >3 will show the whole name if it is less than that many characters, but if it is longer, will truncate to namelength - 3 characters and add an ellipsis.
  14. Do the hover effects highlight individual boxes or sample points or both?
  15. Template string used for rendering the information that appear on hover box. Note that this will override hoverinfo. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}" as well as %{xother}, {%xother}, {%_xother}, {%xother_}. When showing info for several points, "xother" will be added to those with different x positions from the first point. An underscore before or after "(x|y)other" will add a space on that side, only when this field is shown. Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. The variables available in hovertemplate are the ones emitted as event data described at this link https://plotly.com/javascript/plotlyjs-events/#event-data. Additionally, every attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are arrayOk: true) are available. Anything contained in tag <extra> is displayed in the secondary box, for example "{fullData.name}". To hide the secondary box completely, use an empty tag <extra></extra>.
  16. Same as text.
  17. Assigns id labels to each datum. These ids for object constancy of data points during animation. Should be an array of strings, not numbers or any other type.
  18. Sets the amount of jitter in the sample points drawn. If "0", the sample points align along the distribution axis. If "1", the sample points are drawn in a random jitter of width equal to the width of the box(es).
  19. Sets the legend group for this trace. Traces part of the same legend group hide/show at the same time when toggling legend items.
  20. HTML font family - the typeface that will be applied by the web browser. The web browser will only be able to apply a font if it is available on the system which it operates. Provide multiple font families, separated by commas, to indicate the preference in which to apply fonts if they aren't available on the system. The Chart Studio Cloud (at https://chart-studio.plotly.com or on-premise) generates images on a server, where only a select number of fonts are installed and supported. These include "Arial", "Balto", "Courier New", "Droid Sans",, "Droid Serif", "Droid Sans Mono", "Gravitas One", "Old Standard TT", "Open Sans", "Overpass", "PT Sans Narrow", "Raleway", "Times New Roman".
  21. Sets the title of the legend group.
  22. Sets the legend rank for this trace. Items and groups with smaller ranks are presented on top/left side while with "reversed"legend.traceorder` they are on bottom/right side. The default legendrank is 1000, so that you can use ranks less than 1000 to place certain items before all unranked items, and ranks greater than 1000 to go after all unranked items.
  23. Sets the width (in px or fraction) of the legend for this trace.
  24. Sets the color of line bounding the box(es).
  25. Sets the width (in px) of line bounding the box(es).
  26. Sets the lower fence values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired. This attribute has effect only under the q1/median/q3 signature. If lowerfence is not provided but a sample (in y or x) is set, we compute the lower as the last sample point below 1.5 times the IQR.
  27. Sets the marker angle in respect to angleref.
  28. Sets the marker color. It accepts either a specific color or an array of numbers that are mapped to the colorscale relative to the max and min values of the array or relative to marker.cmin and marker.cmax if set.
  29. Sets the marker.line color. It accepts either a specific color or an array of numbers that are mapped to the colorscale relative to the max and min values of the array or relative to marker.line.cmin and marker.line.cmax if set.
  30. Sets the border line color of the outlier sample points. Defaults to marker.color
  31. Sets the border line width (in px) of the outlier sample points.
  32. Sets the width (in px) of the lines bounding the marker points.
  33. Sets the marker opacity.
  34. Sets the color of the outlier sample points.
  35. Sets the marker size (in px).
  36. Sets the marker symbol type. Adding 100 is equivalent to appending "-open" to a symbol name. Adding 200 is equivalent to appending "-dot" to a symbol name. Adding 300 is equivalent to appending "-open-dot" or "dot-open" to a symbol name.
  37. Sets the mean values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired. This attribute has effect only under the q1/median/q3 signature. If mean is not provided but a sample (in y or x) is set, we compute the mean for each box using the sample values.
  38. Sets the median values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired.
  39. Assigns extra meta information associated with this trace that can be used in various text attributes. Attributes such as trace name, graph, axis and colorbar title.text, annotation text rangeselector, updatemenues and sliders label text all support meta. To access the trace meta values in an attribute in the same trace, simply use %{meta[i]} where i is the index or key of the meta item in question. To access trace meta in layout attributes, use %{data[n[.meta[i]} where i is the index or key of the meta and n is the trace index.
  40. Determines whether or not notches are drawn. Notches displays a confidence interval around the median. We compute the confidence interval as median +/- 1.57 " IQR / sqrt(N), where IQR is the interquartile range and N is the sample size. If two boxes' notches do not overlap there is 95% confidence their medians differ. See https://sites.google.com/site/davidsstatistics/home/notched-box-plots for more info. Defaults to "false" unless notchwidth or notchspan is set.
  41. Sets the notch span from the boxes' median values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired. This attribute has effect only under the q1/median/q3 signature. If notchspan is not provided but a sample (in y or x) is set, we compute it as 1.57 " IQR / sqrt(N), where N is the sample size.
  42. Sets the width of the notches relative to the box' width. For example, with 0, the notches are as wide as the box(es).
  43. Set several traces linked to the same position axis or matching axes to the same offsetgroup where bars of the same position coordinate will line up.
  44. Sets the opacity of the trace.
  45. Sets the orientation of the box(es). If "v" ("h"), the distribution is visualized along the vertical (horizontal).
  46. Sets the position of the sample points in relation to the box(es). If "0", the sample points are places over the center of the box(es). Positive (negative) values correspond to positions to the right (left) for vertical boxes and above (below) for horizontal boxes
  47. Sets the Quartile 1 values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired.
  48. Sets the Quartile 3 values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired.
  49. Sets the method used to compute the sample's Q1 and Q3 quartiles. The "linear" method uses the 25th percentile for Q1 and 75th percentile for Q3 as computed using method #10 (listed on http://jse.amstat.org/v14n3/langford.html). The "exclusive" method uses the median to divide the ordered dataset into two halves if the sample is odd, it does not include the median in either half - Q1 is then the median of the lower half and Q3 the median of the upper half. The "inclusive" method also uses the median to divide the ordered dataset into two halves but if the sample is odd, it includes the median in both halves - Q1 is then the median of the lower half and Q3 the median of the upper half.
  50. Sets the standard deviation values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired. This attribute has effect only under the q1/median/q3 signature. If sd is not provided but a sample (in y or x) is set, we compute the standard deviation for each box using the sample values.
  51. Sets the marker color of selected points.
  52. Sets the marker opacity of selected points.
  53. Sets the marker size of selected points.
  54. Array containing integer indices of selected points. Has an effect only for traces that support selections. Note that an empty array means an empty selection where the unselected are turned on for all points, whereas, any other non-array values means no selection all where the selected and unselected styles have no effect.
  55. Determines whether or not an item corresponding to this trace is shown in the legend.
  56. Sets the text elements associated with each sample value. If a single string, the same string appears over all the data points. If an array of string, the items are mapped in order to the this trace's (x,y) coordinates. To be seen, trace hoverinfo must contain a "text" flag.
  57. Controls persistence of some user-driven changes to the trace: constraintrange in parcoords traces, as well as some editable: true modifications such as name and colorbar.title. Defaults to layout.uirevision. Note that other user-driven trace attribute changes are controlled by layout attributes: trace.visible is controlled by layout.legend.uirevision, selectedpoints is controlled by layout.selectionrevision, and colorbar.(x|y) (accessible with config: {editable: true}) is controlled by layout.editrevision. Trace changes are tracked by uid, which only falls back on trace index if no uid is provided. So if your app can add/remove traces before the end of the data array, such that the same trace has a different index, you can still preserve user-driven changes if you give each trace a uid that stays with it as it moves.
  58. Sets the marker color of unselected points, applied only when a selection exists.
  59. Sets the marker opacity of unselected points, applied only when a selection exists.
  60. Sets the marker size of unselected points, applied only when a selection exists.
  61. Sets the upper fence values. There should be as many items as the number of boxes desired. This attribute has effect only under the q1/median/q3 signature. If upperfence is not provided but a sample (in y or x) is set, we compute the lower as the last sample point above 1.5 times the IQR.
  62. Determines whether or not this trace is visible. If "legendonly", the trace is not drawn, but can appear as a legend item (provided that the legend itself is visible).
  63. Sets the width of the whiskers relative to the box' width. For example, with 1, the whiskers are as wide as the box(es).
  64. Sets the width of the box in data coordinate If "0" (default value) the width is automatically selected based on the positions of other box traces in the same subplot.
  65. Sets the x coordinate for single-box traces or the starting coordinate for multi-box traces set using q1/median/q3. See overview for more info.
  66. Sets the x sample data or coordinates. See overview for more info.
  67. Sets a reference between this trace's x coordinates and a 2D cartesian x axis. If "x" (the default value), the x coordinates refer to layout.xaxis. If "x2", the x coordinates refer to layout.xaxis2, and so on.
  68. Sets the calendar system to use with x date data.
  69. Sets the hover text formatting rulefor x using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format. And for dates see: https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format. We add two items to d3's date formatter: "%h" for half of the year as a decimal number as well as "%{n}f" for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, "2016-10-13 09:15:23.456" with tickformat "%H~%M~%S.%2f" would display "09~15~23.46"By default the values are formatted using xaxis.hoverformat.
  70. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the base for period positioning in milliseconds or date string on the x0 axis. When x0period is round number of weeks, the x0period0 by default would be on a Sunday i.e. 2000-01-02, otherwise it would be at 2000-01-01.
  71. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the period positioning in milliseconds or "M" on the x axis. Special values in the form of "M" could be used to declare the number of months. In this case n must be a positive integer.
  72. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the alignment of data points on the x axis.
  73. Sets the y coordinate for single-box traces or the starting coordinate for multi-box traces set using q1/median/q3. See overview for more info.
  74. Sets the y sample data or coordinates. See overview for more info.
  75. Sets a reference between this trace's y coordinates and a 2D cartesian y axis. If "y" (the default value), the y coordinates refer to layout.yaxis. If "y2", the y coordinates refer to layout.yaxis2, and so on.
  76. Sets the calendar system to use with y date data.
  77. Sets the hover text formatting rulefor y using d3 formatting mini-languages which are very similar to those in Python. For numbers, see: https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format. And for dates see: https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format. We add two items to d3's date formatter: "%h" for half of the year as a decimal number as well as "%{n}f" for fractional seconds with n digits. For example, "2016-10-13 09:15:23.456" with tickformat "%H~%M~%S.%2f" would display "09~15~23.46"By default the values are formatted using yaxis.hoverformat.
  78. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the base for period positioning in milliseconds or date string on the y0 axis. When y0period is round number of weeks, the y0period0 by default would be on a Sunday i.e. 2000-01-02, otherwise it would be at 2000-01-01.
  79. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the period positioning in milliseconds or "M" on the y axis. Special values in the form of "M" could be used to declare the number of months. In this case n must be a positive integer.
  80. Only relevant when the axis type is "date". Sets the alignment of data points on the y axis.
