Customizing with boxplot? 2 quick questions

Greetings all,
I have two quick questions on box plots. So I have a boxplot (see attached for an example). First, is there any way to plot the mean as a dot in each of the boxes, as well as the mode as a square type also in the boxes? Right now the line in this plot is of the mean of the array called "Sigma1" (y-axis), so I guess it would be a general mean. Here's that line of code (if it helps):
boxplot(OutputMatrixValid(1:numtrue,48),OutputMatrixValid(1:numtrue,4))
plot(xlim,[mean_Sigma1,mean_Sigma1],'r:','LineWidth',2)
where OutputMatrixValid(1:numtrue,48) is Sigma1 values, and OutputMatrixValid(1:numtrue,4) is the "Bumpy Factor" (x-axis). I know the plot line in there isn't correct but I was giving it an honest shot.
Second question with this boxplot, per the help files the whiskers are defaulted to 1.5 * the inner quartiles. Correct me if I am wrong but the inner quartiles, as I understand it, are the 25% and 75% values. Is there any way to set the whisker to a 95& CI index, such that one index is at 2.5%, and the other is 97.5%?
Thanks! Jesse
