        Notes

        Setting the markevery property will only show markers at actual data
        points.  When using float arguments to set the markevery property
        on irregularly spaced data, the markers will likely not appear evenly
        spaced because the actual data points do not coincide with the
        theoretical spacing between markers.

        When using a start offset to specify the first marker, the offset will
        be from the first data point which may be different from the first
        the visible data point if the plot is zoomed in.

        If zooming in on a plot when using float arguments then the actual
        data points that have markers will change because the distance between
        markers is always determined from the display-coordinates
        axes-bounding-box-diagonal regardless of the actual axes data limits.
