New features for boxplot #217
Description
Original report at SourceForge, opened Thu Mar 8 13:20:11 2007
Added options to:
- plot everything in black only
- fix notch size and switch off box outline around notch when notch is larger than inter-quartile distance
- add a line corresponding to the mean average
- fill the boxes in white
- prevent automatic axis limit setting
Added docstring text and minor edits to existing text.
Existing functionality is unaffected.
See my detailed description, example output, and the code posted on the matplotlib-devel list. Output from diff is attached, relative to matplotlib 0.90 axes.py method 'boxplot'.

Is this patch still around to look at? I was never on sourceforge...

All issue attachments were lost in the transition from sf to github, as far as I know. It is not entirely clear whether robclewley also posted the modified boxplot to matplotlib-devel, but if he did, then you should be able to find it in one of the mailing list archives. Also, you may be able to track him down on the web.

@efiring Thanks! I found it. Now it's time to run
patchand see what breaks. Win.dmcdougall commentedon Aug 28, 2012
So the diff is super noisy (unsurprisingly). I'll take a look through it later this week and try to pull out the relevant parts.

I'm creating a PR with this diff so we can figure out what the new features are. That way everyone can chime in.

See #1199.

@phobson: I think now that #2643 is merged, this can be closed. If I'm wrong, just let me know...

@mdboom you're correct.
