Hi, I'd like to plot experimental data points with fitted data through it. This time best would be to plot hollow circles for the experimental data. Pretty much like literal 'o's (except, of course, that passing 'o' results in thick circles). Is this possible somehow? TIA Christian

I'm sure someone will soon provide you with an insightful answer. In the meantime, you can fudge it by doing plot(x,y,'o',markerfacecolor=3D'w') plot(x,y) Regards St=E9fan

Hi Christian, I've been using the Rectangle class in patches to plot unfilled rectangles. Circle and Polygon classes are also available that you may find useful. You can control the filling, the colors of the faces and edges, and the thickness of the edges. Here's an example for an unfilled red rectangle. from matplotlib.patches import Rectangle ... ... fig=figure(figsize=(W,H)) ax = fig.add_axes([left,bottom,width,height]) p=Rectangle([x,y], 4.0, 0.6, fill=False, linewidth=1, edgecolor="red") ax.add_patch(p) -Cheers

I guess Stefan's snippet was merely meant as an example to stimulate my memory :-).Everybody seeing such an example will start to tinker around and try several things - as I did. Cheers Christian
