Attached file Sample profile
I added a PROFILER_MARKER("Scroll event") in ScrollFrameHelper::FireScrollEvent() and grabbed a profile that hit that code. However cleopatra didn't show the marker. The raw JSON does have the event (see attached file) so I presume this is an issue in cleopatra.
Your last marker is at t=14909ms. The profiler drops samples that go out of range of the buffer. The UI also filters out samples in the timeline that occur before other timeline start.

In your case you're sample is in the profile but it's filtered out by the UI. I'd suggest grabbing a profile where your marker is in the relevant area or profiling just that thread.
Going with 'INVALID' since the marker do work but I can admit that's it confusing. Let me know if you have any questions.

I don't understand this but I can show you in person. The marker was definitely issued within the period that I profiled.
