In Fit y by x if you ask for Quantiles, all other calculated quantiles (ie 10 and 90) have no meaning since they depend on additional data not present.<BR /><BR />Example:<BR /> Mon, 03 Jan 2011 22:32:29 GMT https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Box-plots-from-five-number-summary/m-p/2787#M2787 mpb 2011-01-03T22:32:29Z https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Box-plots-from-five-number-summary/m-p/2788#M2788 I tried both options you suggested and indeed they work.<BR />Thank you!<BR />Naama Tue, 04 Jan 2011 08:43:11 GMT https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Box-plots-from-five-number-summary/m-p/2788#M2788 2011-01-04T08:43:11Z
