The 'marker' property

Character Scalar (or empty vector)

Valid for: Series

When a series is drawn as a Scatter chart, each point is denoted by a marker symbol. By default, the symbol to use is selected when the series is created. By changing the marker property, you can choose a particular marker symbol. In addition, if you specify a marker using this property, the marker will be also be displayed if the series is shown as a Line chart.

The marker is specified by assigning a character scalar, which is one of the following APL symbols: + × * ○ ⌽ ⊖ ∇ ∆ ⋄ ⎕ ↑ ↓ → ← It can also be a space or empty vector, in which case no marker is drawn.

Note: The actual marker is drawn is not a character, but a shape similar to that of the corresponding APL symbol. The APL font is not used to render the marker shape.
