[Solved] Button that toggles row hide has appeared on left

Post by faintlywonky »

All of a sudden I have a button that appears to the left of the row numbers. It is marked with a "-" and pressing it causes a single, specific row to be hidden. Then the button changes to a "+" and pressing it again causes the row to reappear. There are also two tiny buttons at the top of this column labeled 1 and 2 which also toggle the hide/show function. I don't know what this feature is called so I can't find any instructions for it, and I'd like to know how to get rid of it.

Go to the row in question, select Data | Group and Outline | Ungroup
