Plotting symbols
Recall that plotly allows you to customize the plotting symbols used through the symbols argument to add_markers(). Both numeric and character specifications of symbols are permitted. For example, 100 denotes an open circle which can also be specified as "circle-open".
To manually specify the scale for, say, three levels you can specify symbols = c("circle", "triangle", "x") to ensure that the groups are represented by circles, triangles, and x's, in that order.
Here's the full list of valid plotting symbols for your reference.
