Building a Model with Elementary Components |
The Box Plot shows the minimum, maximum, and quartiles of the
attribute that it is monitoring.
This attribute can be named in a bucket that is dropped on the box plot
or can be one of the states of a component that is dropped on
the box plot.
If a bucket is dropped on the box plot then the bin controls
for the box plot are those of the bucket.
If a component is dropped on the box plot then there is a hidden bucket
associated with the box plot and the bin controls
are associated with the box plot and are accessible from
the box plot control panel.
Figure 3.16: A Box Plot Control Panel
The box plot control panel has buttons to enable or disable automatic scaling, refresh the plot, raise the local bin controls, and to specify auxiliary controls. The latter two buttons apply if you drop a component on a box plot.
You can also drop box plots onto other box plots. This enables you to collect statistics on the minimum, maximum, and quartiles of the attribute. It is a type of batch means.
