I was able to do this with the text command and the appropriate code for the shape I wanted.

I made a plot and then place a symbol where I needed it.

for me a half filled circle:

...

text(-1.76,0, char(9680) ,'fontsize', 8)

Hello xinjun li,

There is no such specifier present in matlab. If you really want them then you will have to create them using Stephen's link of custom marker plot.

Otherwise you can use different colors for these specifiers rather than full solid and half solid.

Checkout the specifiers present in matlab: Marker Specifiers
