Remarks

This interface allows you to specify marker behavior for a custom marker type. You can still change certain marker attributes using the IVsTextMarker interface (SetBehavior), SetVisualStyle, and so on) as well as by supplying an IVsTextMarkerClient when you create a marker.

Implement IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType to describe how a given marker behaves and appears to the user. The environment calls the methods of IVsPackageDefinedTextMarkerType when new customization information is built as follows:

  • User starts the integrated development environment (IDE) for the first time.

  • User selects Options on the Tools menu, and then clicks the Reset Defaults button in the Font and Colors dialog box.

Notes to Implementers

Implemented to provide a custom marker type.

Notes to Callers
