seaborn.objects.Dots#
- class seaborn.objects.Dots(artist_kws=<factory>, marker=<rc:scatter.marker>, pointsize=<4>, stroke=<0.75>, color=<'C0'>, alpha=<1>, fill=<True>, fillcolor=<depend:color>, fillalpha=<0.2>)#
A dot mark defined by strokes to better handle overplotting.
- This mark defines the following properties:
marker, pointsize, stroke, color, alpha, fill, fillcolor, fillalpha

Dot
A mark suitable for dot plots or less-dense scatterplots.
Examples
This mark draws relatively small, partially-transparent dots:
p1 = so.Plot(mpg, "horsepower", "mpg") p1.add(so.Dots())
Fixing or mapping the
color
property changes both the stroke (edge) and fill:p1.add(so.Dots(), color="origin")
These properties can be independently parametrized (although the resulting plot may not always be clear):
( p1.add(so.Dots(fillalpha=.5), color="origin", fillcolor="weight") .scale(fillcolor="binary") )
Filled and unfilled markers will happily mix:
p1.add(so.Dots(stroke=1), marker="origin").scale(marker=["o", "x", (6, 2, 1)])
The partial opacity also helps to see local density when using jitter:
( so.Plot(mpg, "horsepower", "origin") .add(so.Dots(), so.Jitter(.25)) )
