Markevery Demo
==============

The ``markevery`` property of `.Line2D` allows drawing markers at a subset of
data points.

The list of possible parameters is specified at `.Line2D.set_markevery`.
In short:

- A single integer N draws every N-th marker.
- A tuple of integers (start, N) draws every N-th marker, starting at data
  index *start*.
- A list of integers draws the markers at the specified indices.
- A slice draws the markers at the sliced indices.
- A float specifies the distance between markers as a fraction of the Axes
  diagonal in screen space. This will lead to a visually uniform distribution
  of the points along the line, irrespective of scales and zooming.

# markevery with log scales
# -------------------------

# Note that the log scale causes a visual asymmetry in the marker distance for
# when subsampling the data using an integer. In contrast, subsampling on
# fraction of figure size creates even distributions, because it's based on
# fractions of the Axes diagonal, not on data coordinates or data indices.

# %%
# markevery on zoomed plots
# -------------------------
#
# Integer-based *markevery* specifications select points from the underlying
# data and are independent on the view. In contrast, float-based specifications
# are related to the Axes diagonal. While zooming does not change the Axes
# diagonal, it changes the displayed data range, and more points will be
# displayed when zooming.
