Is it possible to change point size in gnuplot

gnuplot

Solution

Why do you want to change your dot size, when you can chose filled circles as symbols? Try this command:

plot ... with points pointtype 7 pointsize 5

Here

`pointtype` (or `pt`) allows you to select different symbols (Each terminal has a default set of line and point types, which can be seen by using the command `test`, e.g. pngcairo: `pt 5` would be a filled square)

`pointsize` (or `ps`) allows you to control the size, as you had mentioned before.

I think the difference between a `dot` and a `point` is, that `dot` will always be a pixel-dot. If you are looking for more flexibility, `points` will allow that.

Problem

How can I change the dot size in gnuplot. All of my searches show that I can use ``` plot .... with points <point_type> <point_size> ``` For example, `with points 1 10` works fine. However there is no such option for `with dots` and it says it is not allowed here. Any suggestion?
