I am not familiar with al_legend, but can you do the same thing? Plot
the legend twice, once with the fills and once with the outlines?

Yes, thats what I am doing, first plotting the filled circle with sky
blue color and then
overplotting the same data with open circle with dark blue color. But
then the problem is that
how do I show those symbols using al_legend. I am either able to show
only the skyblue filled circles
or only the dark blue open circles in al_legend. This is where I am
stuck.
Thanks

Plot the data points twice: first with the fill color and then as an
outline.
