Hi there,

the linestyle mechanism of on-off inks is pretty flexible but still limited to 
dash dot combinations. It would be a nice feature if you could simply use a 
marker inside a linestyle instead of a dot for example. This would decouple 
vertices and markers and add a completely new dimension to linestyles.

I have highly resolved, unregularly spaced data which look rather ugly using 
markers or skipped markers at vertices.

Evaluating the complexity to implement this feature I got lost in the code 
when it comes down to the backend stuff. Which object actually calculates the 
arc lengths to draw the linestyles?

Could that feature be feasible in MPL?

Thanks,
Felix
