[BUG] Setting plot marker shape to :auto repeats the cross (+) symbol twice

[HTofi]

Details

Creating a plot with multiple data sets and using the option markershape=:auto leads to the repitition of the + marker on the first and third sets. Here is an example code along with the output figure in the file attached:

p₁ = plot(aspect_ratio=1, legendfontsize=12, xlabel=L"\Re(L)", ylabel=L"\Im(L)", labelfontsize=14, dpi=300, framestyle=:origin, grid=false, tickfont=(9, "computer modern"), left_margin=5mm, legend=:outerright)

plot!(real.(Lt_at_1D), imag.(Lt_at_1D), label=L"$L_{c,1}^s$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)
plot!(real.(Lt_at), imag.(Lt_at), label=L"$L_{c,2}^s$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)
plot!(real.(Lt_at_sig1), imag.(Lt_at_sig1), label=L"$L_{c,3}^s$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)
plot!(real.(Lt_k_1D), imag.(Lt_k_1D), label=L"$L_{c,1}^\kappa$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)
plot!(real.(Lt_k), imag.(Lt_k), label=L"$L_{c,2}^\kappa$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)
plot!(real.(Lt_k_sig1), imag.(Lt_k_sig1), label=L"$L_{c,3}^\kappa$", markershape=:auto, markersize=3, msw=0)

display(p₁)

Output figure: H2_Sc_complex_all.pdf

I think someone made a typo somewhere by writing in :cross instead of :xcross.
