Seeing
the Unseen
So, if you followed
yesterday's tip on section breaks, you may have come to a point where
you felt that life would be so much easier if you could only see where
all those sections begin and end. Am I right?
Should this be the
case for you, here's a little follow up information to help you out.
If you're looking
to "see" the breaks, you'll need to choose to show the formatting
marks.
This can be accomplished several
different ways.
One way is to click
the Show/Hide Paragraph button.

You could also try
Ctrl + Shift + 8 (also labeled as Ctrl + *
).
And last but not least,
you could use the Tools menu, Options
choice.

On the View
tab, find the Formatting section and select
the All choice. Click OK.
Now, your document
should visibly include all your section breaks, along with your paragraph
breaks caused by the Enter key, the Tab keystrokes, spaces, etc.
To hide the formatting
marks, you can click the button again, use Ctrl
+ Shift + 8 again or return to the Options window
and uncheck the All choice.
To see or not to see.
The choice is yours!
