23 Apr Set the Marker face color in Matplotlib

In Matplotlib, you set the marker face color using the markerfacecolor (or its shorthand mfc) parameter in plotting functions like plot() or scatter(). This controls the fill color inside the marker, separate from the edge color.

Let us see an example:

# Set the Marker face color in Matplotlib

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

ypts = np.array([7, 3, 9, 1, 5])

plt.plot(ypts, marker='*', ms = 25, mec = 'b',mfc = 'g', linestyle='-', color='red')
plt.show()

Output
