I'm trying to create a bar and symbol plot which shares the same axes. The issue I am having is that the symbol is aligning to the top of the bar instead of the center. Is this even possible with the configuration options available through vega? I looked through the vega documentation here, but could find no such explanations or applicable examples.

},

},

}
],

},
{

}
],
