I came back from my coffee break and started typing, and suddenly, my target segments are underlined and in purple.

The source segments are not in purple.

I have my tagging set to visible.

There are no tags in these segments.

All the previous segments that were entered before my coffee break are fine.

I don't recall changing anything in the settings that would do this, but obviously, I've done something somewhere. Any ideas?

I'm working in Studio 2021 Freelance (Trados Studio 2021 SR1 - 16.1.8.4404). The file is a Word doc in a regular Studio package.
