| ### Custom Marker Symbols | ||||||
| The `marker_symbol` attribute allows you to choose from a wide array of symbols to represent markers in your figures. | ||||||
| The basic symbols are: `circle`, `square`, `diamond`, `cross`, `x`, `triangle`, `pentagon`, `hexagram`, `star`, `diamond`, `hourglass`, `bowtie`, `asterisk`, `hash`, `y`, and `line`. | ||||||
| Each basic symbol is also represented by a number. Adding 100 to that number is equivalent to appending the suffix "-open" to a symbol name. Adding 200 is equivalent to appending "-dot" to a symbol name. Adding 300 is equivalent to appending "-open-dot" or "dot-open" to a symbol name. | ||||||
| In the following figures, hover over a symbol to see its name or number. Set the `marker_symbol` attribute equal to that name or number to change the marker symbol in your figure. | ||||||
| #### Basic Symbols | ||||||
| ```python | ||||||
| import plotly.graph_objects as go | ||||||
| fig = go.Figure() | ||||||
| fig.update_layout(title="Basic Symbols") | ||||||
| fig.update_xaxes(showticklabels=False) | ||||||
| fig.update_yaxes(showticklabels=False) | ||||||
| for index in range(27): | ||||||
| fig.add_trace(go.Scatter(x=[(index % 30)], y=[index // 30], | ||||||
| marker_symbol=index, marker_color='black', | ||||||
| marker_size=10, showlegend=False, hovertext=index)) | ||||||

I would use 6 here instead of 30 so that the symbols appear on several lines.
