We begin by first considering a circular graphene quantum dot (similar to what
has been used in parts of the tutorial :ref:`tutorial-graphene`.) In contrast
to previous examples, we will also use hoppings beyond next-nearest neighbors:

The way how data is presented of course influences what features of the data
are best visible in a given plot. With `~kwant.plotter.plot` one can easily go
beyond pseudocolor-like plots. For example, we can represent the wave function
probability using the symbols itself:

while the site color is transparent to also allow for overlapping symbols to be
visible. The hoppings are also plotted in order to show the underlying lattice.
