Re: Box plots from five number summary
As an example, if you create the following table:
you can use either Fit y by x or Variability to create box plots for each ID which show the correct Min, Q1, Med, Q3, and Max. 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.
Example:
