class matplotlib.markers.MarkerStyle(marker=None, fillstyle=None) [source]

Bases: object

A class representing marker types.

Attributes:	markerslist All known markers. filled_markerslist All known filled markers. This is a subset of markers. fillstyleslist The supported fillstyles.

Parameters:	markerstr or array-like or None, default: None None means no marker. For other possible marker values see the module docstring matplotlib.markers. fillstylestr, default: 'full' One of 'full', 'left', 'right', 'bottom', 'top', 'none'.

__init__(self, marker=None, fillstyle=None) [source]

Parameters:	markerstr or array-like or None, default: None None means no marker. For other possible marker values see the module docstring matplotlib.markers. fillstylestr, default: 'full' One of 'full', 'left', 'right', 'bottom', 'top', 'none'.

__module__ = 'matplotlib.markers'

__weakref__

list of weak references to the object (if defined)

filled_markers = ('o', 'v', '^', '<', '>', '8', 's', 'p', '*', 'h', 'H', 'D', 'd', 'P', 'X')

fillstyles = ('full', 'left', 'right', 'bottom', 'top', 'none')

get_alt_path(self) [source]

Return a Path for the alternate part of the marker.

For unfilled markers, this is None; for filled markers, this is the area to be drawn with markerfacecoloralt.

get_alt_transform(self) [source]

Return the transform to be applied to the Path from MarkerStyle.get_alt_path().

get_capstyle(self) [source]

get_fillstyle(self) [source]

get_joinstyle(self) [source]

get_marker(self) [source]

get_path(self) [source]

Return a Path for the primary part of the marker.

For unfilled markers this is the whole marker, for filled markers, this is the area to be drawn with markerfacecolor.

get_snap_threshold(self) [source]

get_transform(self) [source]

Return the transform to be applied to the Path from MarkerStyle.get_path().

set_fillstyle(self, fillstyle) [source]

Set the fillstyle.

Parameters:	fillstyle{'full', 'left', 'right', 'bottom', 'top', 'none'} The part of the marker surface that is colored with markerfacecolor.

set_marker(self, marker) [source]

Set the marker.

Parameters:	markerstr or array-like or None, default: None None means no marker. For other possible marker values see the module docstring matplotlib.markers.
