Show or hide tag markers and tagged frames

Tag markers are brackets that appear on the page around text that has been tagged. Show tag markers to see where titles, headings, and other text has been tagged on a page. Tagged frames indicate where items such as text frames, tables, and images have been tagged. The color assigned to a tag in the Tags panel determines the color of tag markers and tagged frames. Tag markers and tagged frames only appear in Normal view.

A tagged frame and, within it, tag markers.

 Do any of the following:
  • To display color-coded tagged frames, choose View > Structure > Show Tagged Frames.

  • To hide the color-coding of tagged frames, choose View > Structure > Hide Tagged Frames.

  • To display color brackets around tagged text, choose View > Structure > Show Tag Markers.

  • To hide color brackets around tagged text, choose View > Structure > Hide Tag Markers.

To minimize the risk of accidentally deleting a tag marker, edit tagged text in Story Editor, where tag markers are more visible.
