thtext>`,
e.g. ``"$\u266B$"``. For an overview over the STIX font symbols refer to the
`STIX font table <http://www.stixfonts.org/allGlyphs.html>`_.
Also see the :doc:`/gallery/text_labels_and_annotations/stix_fonts_demo`.

Integer numbers from ``0`` to ``11`` create lines and triangles. Those are
equally accessible via capitalized variables, like ``CARETDOWNBASE``.
Hence the following are equivalent::

    plt.plot([1, 2, 3], marker=11)
    plt.plot([1, 2, 3], marker=matplotlib.markers.CARETDOWNBASE)

Markers join and cap styles can be customized by creating a new instance of
MarkerStyle.
A MarkerStyle can also have a custom `~matplotlib.transforms.Transform`
allowing it to be arbitrarily rotated or offset.
