Outliers

Note	This feature is only applicable to the boxplot widget.

An outlier is an observation point that is distant from other observations. Outliers can significantly impact the results of statistical analysis and can occur for various reasons, including variability in the data, measurement error, or experimental error. The figure given below shows the different fields present in the Outliers formatting.

The table given below describes different fields present in Outliers formatting.

Field	Description	Remark
Position	It allows you to select the location on the dashboard page where you want to position the outlier text.	By default, the outlier text is located in the top-left corner of the widget. You can move the outlier text to any location along the edges of the widget.
Text	It allows you to change the appearance of the outlier text.	You can change the text font, its size, and color. You can make the text bold, italic, and underline it.

To use the outliers formatting option, first plot a boxplot chart using dimensions and measures from the dataset. For example, we plot a boxplot chart of mileage against fuelType.
The figure given below displays the Boxplot Chart.
By default,

• The Outlier label is located in the top-left corner.
• The font type is Roboto, the font size is 12, and the default color is used.
  

Now,

• Change the position of the Outlier label. In the chart below, we position it at the upper - center of the chart.
• Change the Outlier label font type, font size, and font color.
• Make it bold, italic, and underline it.

The resultant widget is shown below.


You can also change the color of the outlier points from Chart > Data Color > Outlier.
