Plotting marks with more one character in Gaston

Specific Domains Visualization

Dear all,
I have the following code to plot several points and marks beside it:

using Gaston
n=15
L=rand(1:100,n,2)
L=[L 1:n] 
scatter([L[1,1]], [L[1,2]],linewidth="3", pointtype="fsquare", plotstyle="linespoints",linecolor = "'red'",Axes(key = :off))
plot!(L[2:2,1], L[2:2,2],linewidth="3", pointtype="fcircle",linecolor = "'red'")
plot!(L[1:1,1].+2, L[1:1,2],linewidth="3", pointtype="453",linecolor = "'red'")

I would like to print the mark “456” beside the first point.

However, the Gaston package (my preferable) does not accept the string ‘453’ that has more one character, and only print the first character. How can I fix this, please?

This is a limitation in gnuplot. See section “Points” in page 80 of the documentation.

To plot a string, you can use the labels plotstyle (page 77 in the manual).

could you inserd this instruction on my code, please?

Here’s a quick example:

x, y = [1, 2], [-1, 1.5]
scatter(x, y,
        pointtype = "fsquare", linecolor = "'red'",
        Axes(xrange=(0,3), yrange=(-2,3)))
plot!(x.+0.1, y, supp=["456", "457"], w = "labels")

which produces this plot:
