marker-mid

The marker-mid attribute defines the arrowhead or polymarker that will be drawn at all interior vertices of the given shape.

The marker is rendered on every vertex other than the first and last vertices of the path data.

You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

<svg viewBox="0 0 120 120" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <defs>
    <marker id="circle" markerWidth="8" markerHeight="8" refX="4" refY="4">
        <circle cx="4" cy="4" r="4" stroke="none" fill="#f00"/>
    </marker>
  </defs>
  <polyline fill="none" stroke="black"
      points="20,100 40,60 70,80 100,20" marker-mid="url(#circle)"/>
</svg>
