Box plot chart templates
Browse box plot chart templates for distribution summaries, quartile comparisons, and outlier views. Each preview opens in the editor with sample min, quartile, and max values you can replace with your own statistical data.

Box plot chart templates summarize distributions with medians, interquartile boxes, whiskers, and optional outlier points—useful for experiment results, salary bands, or latency samples across groups. Gallery layouts include horizontal and vertical orientations with axis spacing tuned for category labels.
Instead of drawing whiskers manually, open a template that already encodes five-number summaries per category. Sample groups load in the editor where you can paste pre-aggregated stats or raw values depending on the layout configuration.
This index focuses on template previews and gallery selection, not competing with a future box plot maker page for creation keywords. Browse layouts here, then refine data and styling in the editor.
Whisker length rules and median line styles are baked into each preview. Compare those defaults in the gallery before you paste quartile tables so outliers and spreads render the way your audience expects.
Boxplot templates
Popular template layouts for this chart type
Group comparison box plot template
Compare medians and spread across teams, variants, or regions using side-by-side box layouts from the gallery.
Horizontal box plot for long labels
Pick a sideways template when category names need horizontal space along the vertical axis.
Outlier emphasis preview
Some templates style outlier dots distinctly—useful when extreme values must remain visible beyond whiskers.
Axis and grid presets
Gallery layouts include value axes and light grids; adjust units and tick density after loading your summaries.
Statistical summary export
Customize box colors and median markers, then export PNG or SVG for lab reports or analytics decks.
Reuse box plot templates in studies
Keep the same gallery layout across experiment rounds so reviewers compare distributions on identical axes and whisker rules.
How to use a box plot chart template
- Choose a box plot template with the orientation and group count that fits your comparison.
- Open the preview and replace sample category statistics with your quartile data or imported table.
- Tune colors, whisker rules, and outlier display, then export the chart.
Frequently asked questions
- Do box plot templates need pre-calculated quartiles?
- Gallery samples use ready-made five-number summaries. You can edit those fields directly or replace them with values computed in your spreadsheet before import.
- Can box plot templates show individual points?
- Some layouts include jitter or outlier markers. Toggle point display in the editor after opening a template.
- When should I pick a box plot template over a bar chart?
- Use box plots when spread and median matter, not just totals. Bar chart templates work better for simple category sums.
- Is this a box plot maker tool?
- No. It is a template gallery for distribution layouts. Maker guides can target different search intent on another route.
- Can I compare more groups in a box plot template?
- Add categories in the data table after opening a preview. If labels crowd the axis, switch to a horizontal template from the gallery.
