I've searched the forums and haven't had too much luck finding out if there's any way for FM (I'm using FM9 p196 with the new TCS 2) to better identify marker tags of varying types (like index, cross-reference, and custom Context Sensitive Help ones) with a Character format that makes them stand out for easier identification. Just turning on the View > Text Symbols only shows you the marker "T's" in the same font and colour as your content text. They also tend to run into punctuation and paragraph marks which obscures the marker tag. I've only run across one method for making these markers "pop out" visually: create custom Character formats and then manually apply them to the marker types you desire using either a Find/Replace or after the marker has been inserted. What I'd like to find out is if anyone has discovered a better way to accomplish this or if Adobe has somehow built this into the new version 9 of FM (and I just haven't found out how to do it).
