Is there a way to make the selected annotation more obvious?

A group is using annotations to mark up artwork, putting to use comments and the annotations pane in Web Access. An issue has come up when selecting the annotation in the pane, which 'highlights' the corresponding annotation on the page. The issue is that this highlighting is too subtle. It's fine for sticky notes, which open, but the shading on the other annotation types doesn't draw enough attention. Is there a CSS setting that can be used to beef up the highlighting?

It is possible to alter their appearance by editing the css file. At the bottom of docview.css you can add something like:

rect {
    stroke-width: 5px !important;
}

You can also change the color of the border and other similar properties. The annotations are done using SVG so you probably aren't familiar with the attributes and CSS properties that affect their appearance. This is a decent starting point, and the browser's developer tool is always a good way to learn more.
