Microsoft Word and Reveal Codes

At the bottom of the Reveal Formatting task pane, you are given the option of turning formatting marks on or off. This is handy if you like to display formatting marks when you're editing but not when you're typing.

However, the way the option works is a bit odd. If you used the Options dialog box to display some of the formatting marks, the option will toggle between showing the ones already on the screen and all the formatting marks.

If you used the Options dialog box to display all of the formatting marks or if you don't have any formatting marks displayed, the option will toggle formatting marks on and off.
