how to specify filling properties in gscatter?

I'm trying to make a group scatter plot using gscatter function, there are two contrast groups each has three subgroups, is there a way I can seperate two contrast groups by filling or not filling the markers' interiors? here's a group example, how can I set female group with marker face filled while the male group is not?

group = {'female1','female2','femaler','male1','male2','male3'};

You can modify the required markers after calling gscatter. Here's an example:

% random data for 6 groups
N = 100;
Ngroups = 6;
x = rand(N,1);
y = rand(N,1);
g = randi(Ngroups,N,1);

% make the gscatter plot with filled markers
h = gscatter(x,y,g,[],'o','filled')

h = 
  6×1 Line array:

  Line    (1)
  Line    (2)
  Line    (3)
  Line    (4)
  Line    (5)
  Line    (6)

% make the markers for 3 of the groups un-filled
fill_idx = [1 2 3];
set(h(fill_idx),'MarkerFaceColor','none')
