What does the small circle - almost like a degree sign mean when the
formatting marks are turned on for viewing (i.e. Show/Hide icon).

Is there a place where there are definitions of all the codes/marks.

Thx,

Take a look at Tools|Symbols menu item - in the displayed dialog box select
the 'special characters' tab.

That will show you some of them, including the small circle you refer to:
'non breaking space'.

Not that all the special characters are the type shown or hidden by the
show/hide toggle button - this button displays, AFAIK, non-printing
characters as per the Tools|Options menu item dialog box, View tab (page
layout view options - nonprinting characters).

HTH,

Rob.

I'm seeing some strange characters that have never popped up in Google Drive before. They're clearly not meant to be shown, as they're really freaking annoying.
