Hi,
Could anybody point me to some help on plotting symbols with filled pattern? Something like "plotsym.pro" but allowing to fill the symbol with pattern.
Thanks in advance,
Andry

To my knowledge there isn't any off-the-shelf utility for this. But it wouldn't be that hard to create the symbol with some auxiliary function:
pro circle,x,y,RADIUS=radius
;compute circle
;plot circle
polyfill, pattern=pattern
end
then loop over the data points in your plot and call this procedure each time. It's ugly and probably slow if you have a lot of data --- but if you have a lot of data, then plotting a pattern like this is gonna be costly anyway.
