Hey ALL,

is it possible to show more informations of outliers in a boxplot in SAS VIYA? Like a mouseover-function? 

Thank you!

Ah, sorry. Because of the way that data is aggregated for box plots, you cannot assign extra variables to be displayed in the data tips.

You could manually create a filter on another object based on the outlier range that is displayed in the box plot, but that would be purely an ad-hoc approach for data exploration.

Hello,

 

Box plots in a Visual Analytics report should have details on the outlier values when you move your cursor over the outliers.

What version of Visual Analytics do you have?

 

Thanks,

Sam
