Markershape not working with pluto.jl and plotly backend

I am using the plotly() backend for plots in pluto.jl and for some reason cannot change the marker shape, I am wondering if I am misunderstanding or calling it wrong, but I haven’t found a solution after a decent amount of googling.

#MWE
#Since it is in pluto I will just label the cells

#Cell 1
using Plots

#Cell 2
plotly()

#Cell 3
begin
	rando1 = rand(10) .* 10
	rando2 = rand(10) .* 10
	plot(rando1,rando2,mc=:red,lc=:red, marker=true)
	plot!(rando2,rando1,mc=:green,lc=:green,marker=true,markershape=:x)
end

The colors update etc, but I cannot get the markershape to change, even if I define it on the first plot call as well. I don’t know if it affects anything, but I have several plots in several different cells. I wondered if the plot!() call was maybe updating a more current plot in a different cell, but the marker shape doesn’t seem to be changing anywhere.

Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Jacob

I figured it out! It has something to do with using plot() instead of scatter(). Changing everything to scatter() and mode=:“marker” worked!

#Cell 1
using Plots

#Cell 2
plotly()

#Cell 3
#MWE
begin
	rando1 = rand(10) .* 10
	rando2 = rand(10) .* 10
	scatter(rando1,rando2,mc=:red,lc=:red, mode=:"marker",title="Figured it out! :)")
	scatter!(rando2,rando1,mc=:green,lc=:green,mode=:"marker",markershape=:x)
end
