I said to replace the whisker value with the hinge value: maumnf_plot<-boxplot(log_loads~ind,data=nfmaum ) # only need the data to get the stats maumnf_plot$stats[1,] <- maumnf_plot$stats[2,] # Replaced whisker row with hinge row # The graphics arguments to bxp need to be in the second call. # They won't be carried over from the sats bxp(maumnf_plot, , horizontal=TRUE, notch=T, outline=FALSE, whisker=0, main="Maumee River Near Future Climate Scenarios", ylab="Log Load",xlab="Climate Scenarios") -- David > > Thanks > Meredith > > On Sat, Sep 29, 2012 at 1:46 PM, David Winsemius <dwinsem...@comcast.net> > wrote: > > On Sep 29, 2012, at 10:23 AM, Meredith Ballard LaBeau wrote: > > > Good Afternoon- > > I was wanting to alter the boxplot to remove the lower whisker, both the > > whisker line and staple just on the lower end.
