Something happened - I had this body setup exactly the way I wanted it, but I did a hard reset, and now I'm trying to get things back the way they were.
I have just configured the back focus button (AF-ON), and it works; however, I don't see the little red indicator when I achieve focus. I currently use only ONE focus point, dead center. But I cannot get the focus point to appear again.
I have a battery grip with two batteries, both of which are at about half power. Firmware version is 1.4.0. There are videos out there that explain how to turn this on for previous 5D models, but I can't find it for a MK IV.
Can someone explain how to turn on focus points?
Thank you.

AF Point Display during AF needs to be enabled. By default it’s disabled. I have mine personally set to display all AF points all the time. Though it can be set up to only display active AF points.
