When a specified event occurs, Plane Maker Settings draws a marker around or under the plane for easy identification. A plane marker can be shown for the duration of an event or only for a user defined time period. All settings must be enabled in the Event Manager (see Enable or Disable Alerts). Plane Markers are scaled automatically while zooming in or out.
