+    for (var i = 0; i < points * 2; i++) {
+        var radius = i % 2 === 0 ? outerRadius : innerRadius;
+        var ang = (i * Math.PI) / points - Math.PI / 2;
+        var x = radius * Math.cos(ang);
+        var y = radius * Math.sin(ang);
+        path += (i === 0 ? '' : 'L') + x.toFixed(2) + ',' + y.toFixed(2);

+    return path;
+}
+
+// Register the custom markers

+Plotly.Drawing.addCustomMarker('star5', star5Marker);
+
+// Use them in a plot
+Plotly.newPlot('plot1', [{

API Reference

+
+ 
Plotly.Drawing.addCustomMarker(name, drawFunc, opts)
+
+Parameters:
+  - name (string): The name of the new marker symbol
+  - drawFunc (function): A function(r, angle, standoff) that returns an SVG path string
+  - opts (object, optional): Configuration options
+    - backoff (number): Backoff distance for this symbol (default: 0)
+    - needLine (boolean): Whether this symbol needs a line (default: false)
+    - noDot (boolean): Whether to skip creating -dot variants (default: false)
+    - noFill (boolean): Whether this symbol should not be filled (default: false)
+
+Returns:
+  - (number): The symbol number assigned to the new marker
+
+Marker Variants:
+  Automatically creates these variants (unless noDot is true):
+  - 'name'           : Base marker (filled)
+  - 'name-open'      : Open marker (outline only)
+  - 'name-dot'       : Marker with dot in center
+  - 'name-open-dot'  : Open marker with dot in center

Custom Marker Functions

+
+ Pass functions as marker.symbol to create custom shapes.
+ Simple: function(r) — r is marker radius
+ Data-aware: function(r, customdata) — access per-point data +
+ + +

1. Basic Custom Markers

+

Define functions returning SVG path strings. Mix with built-in symbols.

+
+ 
+// Heart shape
+function heart(r) {
+    var x = r * 0.6, y = r * 0.8;
+    return 'M0,' + (-y/2) +
+           'C' + (-x) + ',' + (-y) + ' ' + (-x*2) + ',' + (-y/3) + ' ' + (-x*2) + ',0' +
+           'C' + (-x*2) + ',' + (y/2) + ' 0,' + y + ' 0,' + (y*1.5) +
+           'C0,' + y + ' ' + (x*2) + ',' + (y/2) + ' ' + (x*2) + ',0' +
+           'C' + (x*2) + ',' + (-y/3) + ' ' + x + ',' + (-y) + ' 0,' + (-y/2) + 'Z';
+}
+
+// 5-point star
+function star(r) {
+    var path = 'M';
+    for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
+        var rad = i % 2 === 0 ? r : r * 0.4;
+        var ang = i * Math.PI / 5 - Math.PI / 2;
+        path += (i ? 'L' : '') + (rad * Math.cos(ang)).toFixed(2) + ',' + (rad * Math.sin(ang)).toFixed(2);
+    }
+    return path + 'Z';
+}
+
+Plotly.newPlot('plot1', [{
+    x: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
+    y: [2, 3, 4, 3, 2],
+    mode: 'markers+lines',
+    marker: {
+        symbol: [heart, star, 'circle', star, heart],  // mix functions and strings
+        size: 25,
+        color: ['red', 'gold', 'blue', 'gold', 'red']
+    }
+}]);
+ + +

2. Data-Aware Markers

+

Access customdata[i] to vary shape per point.

+
+ 
+function shapeByData(r, customdata) {
+    if (customdata === 'star') {
+        // Star shape
+        var path = 'M';
+        for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
+            var rad = i % 2 === 0 ? r : r * 0.4;
+            var ang = i * Math.PI / 5 - Math.PI / 2;
+            path += (i ? 'L' : '') + (rad * Math.cos(ang)).toFixed(2) + ',' + (rad * Math.sin(ang)).toFixed(2);
+        }
+        return path + 'Z';
+    }
+    if (customdata === 'big') {
+        r *= 1.4;  // Larger diamond
+    }
+    // Default: diamond
+    return 'M' + r + ',0L0,' + r + 'L-' + r + ',0L0,-' + r + 'Z';
+}
+
+Plotly.newPlot('plot2', [{
+    x: [1, 2, 3, 4],
+    y: [1, 1, 1, 1],
+    customdata: ['normal', 'big', 'star', 'normal'],
+    mode: 'markers',
+    marker: { symbol: shapeByData, size: 25, color: '#10b981' }
+}]);
+ + +

3. Weather Map

+

Complex example: sun, cloud, and wind barbs based on weather data.

+
+ 
+function weatherMarker(r, data) {
+    if (data.type === 'sunny') {
+        // Sun: circle with rays
+        var cr = r * 0.5, path = 'M' + cr + ',0A' + cr + ',' + cr + ' 0 1,1 -' + cr + ',0A' + cr + ',' + cr + ' 0 1,1 ' + cr + ',0';
+        for (var i = 0; i < 8; i++) {
+            var ang = i * Math.PI / 4;
+            path += 'M' + ((cr+2) * Math.cos(ang)).toFixed(1) + ',' + ((cr+2) * Math.sin(ang)).toFixed(1) +
+                    'L' + ((cr+r*0.4) * Math.cos(ang)).toFixed(1) + ',' + ((cr+r*0.4) * Math.sin(ang)).toFixed(1);
+        }
+        return path;
+    }
+    if (data.type === 'cloudy') {
+        return 'M-8,3 A6,6 0 1,1 -2,-4 A7,7 0 1,1 8,-2 A5,5 0 1,1 10,3 Z';
+    }
+    if (data.type === 'wind') {
+        // Wind barb: staff + barbs based on speed
+        var path = 'M0,' + r + 'L0,-' + r, y = -r;
+        for (var i = 0; i < Math.min(data.speed, 3); i++) {
+            path += 'M0,' + y + 'L' + (r*0.6) + ',' + (y + r*0.3);
+            y += r * 0.3;
+        }
+        return path;
+    }
+    return 'M' + r + ',0A' + r + ',' + r + ' 0 1,0 -' + r + ',0A' + r + ',' + r + ' 0 1,0 ' + r + ',0';
+}
+
