I tried calling its
No, that is not possible. However, you could make the points separately, and then make a line, and add the two. You could ensure that the points are on top using the zorder keyword.

This is part of the Python language Sage is built on, and it's definitely worth the time to learn the very basics (though of course not necessary to use Sage per se)! - kcrisman -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
