Points behind lines in gnuplot <p>I was trying to make a graph of the two minimums of a function, however I ran into some trouble<br> <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/upC4o.png" alt="a plot"></p> <pre><code>set terminal pngcairo set output "plot.png" f(x) = x**4-25*x**2+20*x set xrange [-6:6] set yrange [-300:600] set label 1 "" at -3.7207,f(-3.7207) point pt 7 lt 1 set label 2 "" at 3.3154,f(3.3154) point pt 7 lt 2 plot f(x) title "x^4+25x^2+20x" </code></pre> <p>As you can see on the green point, it's behind the curve, I would like to make it so the green point is in front.</p> <p>I found a workaround by using multiplot to plot the points after the curve, but it seems absurd to me that you have to use this workaround.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/CNS83.png" alt="another plot"></p> <pre><code>set terminal pngcairo set output "plot1.png" f(x) = x**4-25*x**2+20*x set multiplot set xrange [-6:6] set yrange [-300:600] plot f(x) title "x^4+25x^2+20x" set label 1 "" at -3.7207,f(-3.7207) point pt 7 lt 1 set label 2 "" at 3.3154,f(3.3154) point pt 7 lt 2 plot NaN notitle </code></pre>
