 ChartElementData["PlotMarkers"]

 {"CenterMarkers", "ContrastMarkers", "EmptyMarkers", "FilledMarkers", 
  "HalfFilledMarkers", "SimpleContrastMarkers", "SimpleMarkers"}

?CenterMarkers
Information::notfound: Symbol CenterMarkers not found. >>

Where can I find information about all these and examples of application?

    $\begingroup$ Hmm. That appears to be my mistake. They're strings and not symbols. Specifically, they're named data that you can query, e.g. ChartElementData["CenterMarkers"] will produce a list containing the markers, etc. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @rcollyer. The Documentation Center is very thin on the subject of ChartElementData; there is not article ref/ChartElementData for that function. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @m_goldberg you are correct, but it is my fault for suggesting it to him without giving a further example. $\endgroup$

m = 6;

data = Table[(m - n + 1) x, {n, 1, m}, {x, 0, 1, .1}];

cedPM = ChartElementData["PlotMarkers"]

{"CenterMarkers", "ContrastMarkers", "EmptyMarkers", "FilledMarkers", \
"HalfFilledMarkers", "SimpleContrastMarkers", "SimpleMarkers"}

Column[ListLinePlot[data, PlotMarkers -> ChartElementData[#], 
    PlotLabel -> #, PlotLegends -> Table[(m - n + 1) x, {n, m}]] & /@ 
  cedPM]
