Re: Problem in QwtPlotCurve

If these marks are not too many you can use QwtPlotMarker.

If you need to display symbols at particular curve points only you have to 
derive your own curve class and implement YourCurve::drawSymbols.

void YourCurve::drawSymbols(QPainter *painter, const QwtSymbol &symbol,
    const QwtScaleMap &xMap, const QwtScaleMap &yMap,
    int from, int to) const
{
    painter->setBrush(symbol.brush());
    painter->setPen(symbol.pen());

    QRect rect;
    rect.setSize(QwtPainter::metricsMap().screenToLayout(symbol.size()));

    for (int i = from; i <= to; i++)
    {
         if ( ... )
         {
             const int xi = xMap.transform(x(i));
             const int yi = yMap.transform(y(i));

             rect.moveCenter(QPoint(xi, yi));
             symbol.draw(painter, rect);
         }
     }
}
