I am trying to change the size of the lmplot markers in seaborn. I have tried passing 's' or 'size' as arguments and neither of them work. 

lm = sns.lmplot(x="totalX",y="NormI", hue="Data Type", data=df, palette="Set1", legend_out=False, S=20)

I have tried "s", "markersize", "size" I get no effect. I want to make the data points larger on the plot. Any help is much appreciated.

You want to use scatter_kws={"s": 100}

As in:

lm = sns.lmplot(x = "totalX", y = "NormI", hue = "Data Type", data = df, palette="Set1", legend_out=False, scatter_kws={"s": 100})

You can amend the integer value (currently 100) to change the size of the markers.

I don't know what your hue or palette data are, but this should work nonetheless.
