Repeating Markers

Markers can be doubled or tripled by selecting the Double or Triple radio boxes. To go back to a single marker, select the Single radio box. Figure 9.5 illustrates single, double and triple repeat markers for a path with a LaTeX style end arrow. Note that the markers are placed along the gradient vector which means that they may not lie on the actual path. (See Figure 9.6.)

Figure 9.5: Repeat markers: (a) single, (b) double, (c) triple.
