This is a 'linepoints' plot (Lines/Points) showing all the point shapes available for 'point' and 'linepoints' plots. In this example, we also use a legend to display a text string for each data set, and change the data colors to get 10 distinctive colors.
Example 5.7. Line/Point Plot, Point Shapes

$data = array();

# Show all 10 shapes:
$plot->SetPointShapes($shapes);
# Make the points bigger so we can see them:
$plot->SetPointSizes(10);
# Make the lines all be solid:
$plot->SetLineStyles('solid');
# Also show that as the legend:
$plot->SetLegend($shapes);
# Draw no grids:
$plot->SetDrawXGrid(False);
