matplotlib: make plus sign thicker

Solution 1:

You can use markeredgewidth (or mew). You'll want to combine it with markersize, otherwise you get thick but tiny markers.

For example:

plt.plot([2,4,6,1,3,5], '+', mew=10, ms=20)

enter image description here

Solution 2:

Use markeredgewidth in connection with markersize.
