Dennis,

Windows has two versions of maker.ini:

  1.  There's a system-wide version in \Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker 7.x.
  2.  There is also a version in \Documents and Settings\<user>\Application 
Data\Adobe\FrameMaker\7.x.

The first file contains default settings for all users. The second file (one 
for each user) stores defaults for each user, to allow custom settings. If 
you change settings from the defaults, such as moving a palette, the new 
setting is stored here, where it won't affect other users. User settings 
take precedence over system default settings. So you probably just made the 
Markers= change in the wrong file.

For what it's worth, my original maker.ini (file #1) shows "Markers=0, 20" 
while the version in my user settings (file #2) shows "Markers=85, 177". The 
latter position is what I see on screen.
