# Paragraph animated icon

A paragraph break is set, like a carriage return: the pilcrow's two stems run down from the foot of the bowl to the baseline in turn, and the mark takes their landing. Light: both stems are pulled up to the foot of the bowl (the bowl's counter stays closed), then drop one after the other and stop dead on the baseline; the mark squashes onto the baseline as the second lands and springs back. Strong: the stems visibly roll up to the bowl first, then drop harder in turn; the mark squashes deeper, rebounds and settles.
