Description: If I enter no-break spaces or hyphens, they look exactly like normal spaces and hyphens, instead of having a gray shading as they used to previously. The same for previously-existing ones in a document. Testing indicates that they are still no-break spaces and hyphens, but they are not marked. This is since I up-revved (from a several-year-old rev) a few days ago. I have verified this in safe mode as well as normal mode. Researche indicates that this is supposed to be controlled by View->Field Shadings, but appearance is the same whether or not that is set (checked). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enter text. 2. Press ctl-shift-space or ctl-shift-hyphen 3. Enter more text Actual Results: Text was indistinguishable from that entered with a normal space or hyphen. Expected Results: Showed a space or hyphen shaded gray.

see the work done on bug 58434 only actual fields are toggled with <Ctrl>+F8, formatting marks now toggle with the non-printing characters <Ctrl>+F10 with visibility as set by checkbox from Tools -> Options -> LO Writer -> Formatting Aids.
