Hi Pengkui,
I guess you're referring to something like:
In [15]: plot(np.arange(0,100,2),'D-',color='k',ms=3)
Out[15]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0xbaaba8c>]
then it looks like it's a linestyle, but actually it's a combination of
marker and line, unlike the dash '--' or dots ':' which are pure
linestyles. because my data are quite dense, so I guess if I want to use
this way, I need to sample the data by a proper interval
to have this effect. which is also nice, for sure.
cheers,
Chao
