Unfortunately, I'm not planning to add support for different shapes any time soon. The goal of regl-scatterplot is to scale to millions of points, and even at just thousands of points you cannot visually differentiate point shapes. I only see utility for different point shapes when you draw a few hundred points or so. My suggestion is to use color to distinguish between user updated points and base points. E.g., do you see a difference between the following two screenshots? They are drawn with different point shapes. |

Thank you for the beautiful library you've created! I’m using it to visualize a t-SNE plot with tens of thousands of points, colored based on their annotation. My tool allows users to upload their own data, which is then projected onto the t-SNE.
To distinguish user-uploaded points from the base points, I’m currently using size encoding. However, this method doesn’t always highlight the user points effectively. It would be great to have the option to use different shapes for points (e.g., triangles or squares).
How feasible would it be to implement support for other point shapes?
