Description:
An alternative for box-and-whisker plots is the so-called violin plot. It helps understand the distribution of the data that normally go into a box-and-whisker plot beyond the quartiles and other parameters. See for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violin_plot. 

I have created a prototype for this type of presentation. It still needs to be incorporated into Plotchart, but the interface would be identical to that of the box-and-whisker plots. (One caveat: I have not seen a description of the underlying algorithm, so I concocted a plausible one. This means that the style may be different than you find in the Wikipedia page.)
