Boxxyerrorbars
</H1>
The <B>boxxyerrorbars</B> style is only relevant to 2D data plotting. It is similar
to the <B>xyerrorbars</B> style except that it draws rectangular areas rather than
simple crosses. It uses either 4 or 6 basic columns of input data.
Additional input columns may be used to provide information such as
variable line or fill color (see <B>rgbcolor variable (p. <A HREF="node39.html#rgbcolor_variable"><IMG ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="1" ALT="[*]" SRC="crossref.png"></A>)<A NAME="1548"></A></B>).
<P>
<BR>
<PRE>
4 columns: x y xdelta ydelta
6 columns: x y xlow xhigh ylow yhigh
</PRE>
<BR>
<P>
The box width and height are determined from the x and y errors in the same
way as they are for the <B>xyerrorbars</B> style -- either from xlow to xhigh and
from ylow to yhigh, or from x-xdelta to x+xdelta and from y-ydelta to
y+ydelta, depending on how many data columns are provided.
<P>
The interior of the boxes is drawn according to the current fillstyle.
See <B>set style fill (p. <A HREF="node264.html#set_style_fill"><IMG ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="1" ALT="[*]" SRC="crossref.png"></A>)<A NAME="1553"></A></B> and <B>boxes (p. <A HREF="node57.html#boxes"><IMG ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="1" ALT="[*]" SRC="crossref.png"></A>)<A NAME="1555"></A></B> for details. Alternatively a new fillstyle
may be specified in the plot command.
