While working on a manuscript, I come to the end of a chapter and it
is my direction to include 3 pound signs, centered then go onto the
next line. These 3 pound signs (###) turn into a solid, heavy black
line. How do I turn this option off? I know I can backspace to get
rid of the line, but I want to turn the option OFF.
