I'm plotting various structural geologic SVG symbols and am wondering how to have only a few of the symbols per line - ie., when I use an anticline symbol, I get a repetition of the symbol and when I change the size, I see still many of the same symbol, only larger. What sizing constraint am I missing?

Marker size does not affect how far apart the markers are. Marker spacing is controlled by the "marker placement" settings. The default setting is with interval - 3.000000 Millimeter.



enter image description here



Try using map units instead of millimeters. This will place your markers a fixed distance apart in map units. If you set your markers to be 500 map units apart, and your map units are meters, they will always be 500 meters apart. When you zoom in, they will appear further apart.
