Gill Brooks Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I've suddenly gained this odd symbol when using both Artistic and Frame Text tools. I've gone through all the character and paragraph options but can't see anything checked that would cause it. Does anyone know what it is and how to get rid please? It is still visible after deselecting the font tool. It doesn't show up on exported files, but it's annoying and distracting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The § is a section sign. Like the pilcrow ¶ (paragraph marker) and the mid dots for spaces between words, its visibility can be toggled on or off via the ‘Show Special Characters’ command on the Text menu.

Old Bruce Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 That is the End of Story indicator. You can go to Text > Show Special Characters and uncheck that item.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gill Brooks Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 Ah thank you! I'd found that it was a section marker but couldn't work out how to turn it off. All fixed now.. Calm has been restored Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
