Description

version: 5.24.0
python: 3.12.4

In Styling markers documentation There are 54 marker symbols.
I want to use all of them in my code and loop trough all these 54 (excluding variants -100 -200 -300).
However, some of them, specifically between 33 and 44 cant be drawn. You can see the screenshot.

Just letting you know guys. Thanks for your hard work on plotly!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report with Python 3.12.4 using the marker symbols listed in the Styling markers documentation, focusing on symbols 33 through 44 and excluding the -100, -200, and -300 variants. Compare the rendered output with the screenshot; done when the affected symbols draw correctly or the unsupported symbols are clearly identified.
