[Matplotlib-users] Changing a single marker on a line
Hi, I have a very simple request - I am drawing a line with n points, using a particle marker - something like: x = np.linspace(1,10,11) ** 2 y = np.linspace(1,10,11) plot(x,y,'ro') Is there any way to change the 7th dot (7, 49) to be a blue star instead of a red circle? I was considering using the scatter function to scatter points 1:6 and 8:10 separately with 'ro' and then scatter 7 with the right properties... is that the easiest way?

Thanks a lot, Federico Pretty much. Although, you could possibly just do the first plot normally and then have the scatter function simply plot the red star over the blue circle (maybe make the star size bigger to fully cover the blue circle?).

I was considering using the scatter function to scatter points 1:6 and 8:10 separately with 'ro' and then scatter 7 with the right properties... is that the easiest way? I might be silly, but I believe that this IS the easiest way. In the program above ZZZ (which I put myself) is a list containing just ONE Line2D object, with a common set of properties, such as set_markerfacecolor() or set_marker_size(), and if you use them, all markers change. The data attached to the plot have no information about markers. So, if a way exists at all, to change just one marker, it would be quite involved, and a second plot seems easier than anything else. But a true specialist might know The Real Magic...
