What is this VS2015 code marker?

Here are some code editor markers in Visual Studio 2015:

VS2015 code icons

The second one is a bookmark and the third is a debugger breakpoint.

What's the first one?

Also, does anyone know of a list of these and other markers?

After wondering about this for several days, I just realized what it was.

If you do a "Find All", you're provided with a list of search hits. You can select an item from that list. That marker is for the line matching your currently selected search results item.

In prior versions of VS, you could use Find-in-files to "Mark all Occurrences" of a find result with these icons. – Frank Thomas – 2016-11-17T20:04:57.790
