I would like to delete the black line in the boxes

Hi everybody, I would like to delete the black line as I set 'PlotStyle' as 'compact' or equally 'BoxStyle' as 'filled'

Nope, I'm asking how to get rid of the black lines in the boxes. If i don't set 'BoxStyle' as 'filled' they don't appear, just like in this other image. The code for this other plot is:
boxplot(c, 'Colors',colors);

I'm not able to reproduce. Could you share a workable example?
load carsmall
boxplot(MPG,Origin,'PlotStyle','compact','ColorGroup',Origin)
title('Miles per Gallon by Vehicle Origin')
xlabel('Country of Origin')
ylabel('Miles per Gallon (MPG)')

Those are the whiskers, in the compact style. You can set their length to zero. (I also removed outliers, to show it more clearly.)
rng default
data = randn(100,3);
boxplot(data,'PlotStyle','compact','Whisker',0,'Symbol','')
