Hello,
I noticed that I can change the color of markers easily in Scatter, but not in Plots.
Here an example:
using Plots
x = 1:0.1:10
y1 = x .+ 1
y2 = x .+ 2
y3 = x .+ 3scatter(x, y1, color=:reds, zcolor=1)
scatter!(x, y2, color=:reds, zcolor=2)
scatter!(x, y3, color=:reds, zcolor=3)plot(x, y1, color=:reds, zcolor=1)
plot!(x, y2, color=:reds, zcolor=2)
plot!(x, y3, color=:reds, zcolor=3)
Here, the results
Is this intentional ? 
I don’t know if it’s directly intentional, but it’s by design. zcolor is an alias for marker_z. Use line_z to control the color of a line.
I noticed that my example does not work anymore. I got this long message:
Error showing value of type Plots.Plot{Plots.GRBackend}:
