How to change default pointer color in mapshow?

Hello,

I am using mapshow command to display one of the points on the plot. By default the color for the point in this function is red.

 mapshow(-0.5796,-0.0335,'DisplayType','point','Marker','*')

I need a different color and I tried few things as follows but it does not work.

 mapshow(-0.5796,-0.0335,'DisplayType','point','Marker','*','Color','Yellow')
 mapshow(-0.5796,-0.0335,'DisplayType','point','Marker','*','Color','Y')
 mapshow(-0.5796,-0.0335,'DisplayType','point','Marker','*','Color','yellow')

Is there any way to do it?

Can you simply use plot?

plot(-0.5796,-0.0335,'*','color','y')
