Subject: Re: [ros-users] rviz with MarkerArray
Ross,
Can you explain a little more about what your setup is? I notice that
neither of your md5sums match with the ones on my system. Do you have local
changes?

Also from the plugin topic menu I see.
{{{
visualization_msgs::Marker topic to subscribe to. _array will also
automatically be subscribed with type visualization_msgs::MarkerArray.
}}}
This might take care of your problem.
