Marker Shapes
Standard marker shapes are provided, but advanced users are able to create their own as well.
ScottPlot.Plot myPlot = new();
MarkerShape[] markerShapes = Enum.GetValues<MarkerShape>().ToArray();
ScottPlot.Palettes.Category20 palette = new();
for (int i = 0; i < markerShapes.Length; i++)
{
var mp = myPlot.Add.Marker(x: i, y: 0);
mp.MarkerStyle.Shape = markerShapes[i];
mp.MarkerStyle.Size = 10;
// markers made from filled shapes have can be customized
mp.MarkerStyle.FillColor = palette.GetColor(i).WithAlpha(.5);
// markers made from filled shapes have optional outlines
mp.MarkerStyle.OutlineColor = palette.GetColor(i);
mp.MarkerStyle.OutlineWidth = 2;
// markers created from lines can be customized
mp.MarkerStyle.LineWidth = 2f;
mp.MarkerStyle.LineColor = palette.GetColor(i);
var txt = myPlot.Add.Text(markerShapes[i].ToString(), i, 0.15);
txt.LabelRotation = -90;
txt.LabelAlignment = Alignment.MiddleLeft;
txt.LabelFontColor = Colors.Black;
}
myPlot.Title("Marker Names");
myPlot.Axes.SetLimits(-1, markerShapes.Length, -1, 4);
myPlot.HideGrid();
myPlot.SavePng("demo.png", 400, 300);
