Plotting filled markers with colors

Here is a simple snippet of code: %----------------------------------

b=bone; % for the 'bone' colormap

for m=1:64; plot(m*(1:5),'o','MarkerFaceColor',b(m,:)); hold on; end %-----------------------------------

I expected to see a gradient in the color of the markers from black to white, the two extremes in the 'bone' colormap. Instead, I see the colors range from deep blue to a lighter shade of blue. What am I doing wrong?

I have tried this with other colormaps (jet, etc.) as well but the output of the code never shows a color range varying between the extremes of the chosen colormap.

Thanks.

 b = bone(64);

[José-Luis]

b=bone(64); % for the 'bone' colormap

for m=1:64;
    plot(m,'o','MarkerFaceColor',b(m,:),'MarkerEdgeColor',b(m,:));
    hold on;
end

I am afraid that didn't do it.

That's because the edges were obscuring your figure. Please see revised answer.
