Good evening:
1.
As I zoom in on a PDF page, the text marker gets smaller and smaller:
(100%)
200%
300%
would it be possible to keep it constant or something like that?
2.
Would it be possible to create text markers with a colored outline or a flashing one (a bit like "highlight destination")?
In fact, in the three photos in number 1, you can see that if I place a text marker inside a yellow highlight,
the marker's color will blend in with the yellow highlight, making it difficult to see.
Thank you for anything you can do.

Hello, kio
Unfortunately in both regards the PDF Specification itself is a limiting factor here, so they would not be possible to adjust in any individual way.
For #2, it might be possible to use JavaScript that makes these change color (aka blink) on run, but I do not believe there is any way to do so with just the "note" icons attached to the comment, the whole items color would likely need to change with it - and you would likely want to be in the habit of waiting for the "animation" to end, so that you do not have dozens or thousands of "undo" steps added into the file history each time.
Kind regards,

Okay, thanks for both.
One last suggestion:
Would it be possible to create other icons,
besides the classic "yellow speech bubble" one?
Perhaps a "green(/or red/or etc.) speech bubble" or other types of icons?

Hello, kio
I don't believe so, but I will check with the Dev team to see if they think it is possible for future review.
