        LPART_MARK_ATTRIBUTES lpMarkAttr
);

HIGEAR  hIGear;  /* HIGEAR handle of image */
ART_MARK_ATTRIBUTES ma;  /* mark attributes */
/* structure */
ART_MARK_INDEX markIndex /* index to the mark */
ART_mark_selected_first(hIGear, &hMarkIndex);
if (hMarkIndex != ART_MARK_INVALID)
{
ART_mark_query(hIGear, markIndex, &ma);
ma.dwType = 506;  /* arrow    */
ma.dwLineSize = 5;  /* line thickness =  */
/* 5 pixels    */
nErrcount = ART_mark_modify(hIGear, markIndex, &ma);
}

The mark is repainted in order to see the change in its attributes. Use ART_GUI_mark_paint() function.
