Marker Shapes
The <marker-shape>
setting is used to specify "markers" (pictograms) in
scatterplots and while drawing legends.
Below you can find a list of built-in standard markers. In addition to the standard markers, you can use any unicode character as a custom marker and combine any marker shape with any other marker shape.
Syntax
The syntax for specifing markers is:
;; standard markers
<marker-name>
;; custom unicode markers
custom(<C>)
;; combined markers
combine(<M>...)
Examples:
;; standard "hexagon" marker
hexagon
;; custom unicode marker
custom("◐")
