[PyX-user] Add new symbol

[Dani M. O. <dan...@gm...>]

Hi there,

Is there an easy way of adding a new symbol in the symbol class?
I mean, how can I define a new symbol (a simple vertical line in my
case, though its shape doesn't really matter)? I guess it must not be
very difficult (maybe using a "symbol function with the prototype
symbol(c, x_pt, y_pt, size_pt, attrs)", as read in the documentation),
but I can't figure out how this can be done.

My idea is to eventually use something like
 
g.plot(graph.data.file("test.dat"),
           [graph.style.symbol(graph.style.symbol.MY_NEW_SYMBOL,
symbolattrs=[...])])

where MY_NEW_SYMBOL is what I don't know how to implement.

Thanks a lot in advance,

Dani
