Description Alex 2019-10-27 11:50:52 UTC 
Description:
In a document containing non-breaking spaces, if the item 'Non-breaking spaces' is checked in the LibreOffice Writer > Formatting Aids options, contrary to other items in this option page, the non-breaking spaces marks are always displayed, even if the Formatting Marks option is turned off.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit a document containing non-breaking spaces (AltGr+Shift+Space)
2. In 'Tools > Options... > LibreOffice Writer > Formatting Aids' check the item 'Non-breaking spaces'
3. In the document, toggle on and off the Formatting Marks ('View > Formatting Marks')

Actual Results:
Non-breaking spaces marks are always displayed.

Expected Results:
Non-breaking spaces marks should only be displayed when the Formatting Marks is toggled on.


Reproducible: Always

A non-breaking space (U+00A0) is shown with field shading--so toggle is <Ctr>+F8

Compared to the space (U+0020) which is shown as a NPC--toggled with <Ctrl>+F10

bug 58434 is open to get this sorted out.
