I simply want to change the fill pattern of the rectangle I added. Tried below before:

marker={'marker_pattern_shape'='.'}

Hey @kofgokhan ,

Welcome to the community.

I think you can’t use patterns/hatching with shapes. According to docs:

“”

Bar charts, histograms, polar bar charts and area charts have large markers or areas which support not only a fill color, but also an optional pattern (also known as “hatching” or “texture”).
