Default Word should allow me to dim the paragraph symbol

Hello all...

Does anyone know if it is possible to dim the paragraph symbol when its
turned on using the "Show/Hide {SYMBOL}" button?

The show paragraph feature is quite useful, but the fact that it is as dark
as the regular text becomes obtrusive.

Thanks...

Sincerely,

Taha

I use office 2003 Professional (Windows based) and unfortunately, the
paragraph symbol is the same color as the rest of the text...

I think Daiya was suggesting that if you want to see different behavior, you
need to convert to Mac. Actually, you can change the font color of just the
paragraph mark, but, aside from the fact that this would be ridiculously
tedious, it would also affect the formatting of bullets and numbering.

Well, sorta. I was just making a snide crack, because there isn't really
anything else to be done about this problem, except try to complain enough
to get a feature change. And posting a suggestion, as Taha did, is about
all that can be done in that direction.
