Now I'm confused. I assumed that if "Print Layout" wasn't selected then
the document appeared as it does in Word's "normal" layout, the main
benefit of which, to me, if smooth scrolling and not showing margins

work in page layout--I find the discontinuities as the program jumps
from one page to the next to be extremely bothersome. Is "web layout"

Web Layout corresponds to MS Word's Web Layout, intended to be used for
documents for web publishing. Essentially it displays things the same as
the Print Layout, except that all page attributes are missing.
Essentially the margins become the width of your window and the page
depth becomes infinite. The status bar at the bottom of the window will
always show "1/1" in this mode, meaning page 1 of 1 page, regardless how
much you type.
Presumably even in "web layout" the information for the page break is
there, since it doesn't get lost if I go back to "print layout." What I
need is to know how, when working with this "smooth" presentation mode,
to see where the hard page breaks are. One would even need to see them
in "print layout," since once can't always tell by the amount of space
at the end of the page whether there's a hard page break inserted.
As already mentioned, in print layout, the thin top border line on a
page created by a forced page break defaults to a blue color.
I have one suggestion.
Presumably, you are inserting manual page breaks to mark the end of some
kind of section in your document. After creating this break, you might
then select that entire section and do Insert -> Section ..., giving
your new section a relevant name.
By default, lines marking the beginning and end of section will appear
in the Web Layout window as well as in the Print Layout window. And you
will have the benefit of a better organized document and being able to
quickly jump any of these sections through the Navigator.
