"... there aren't any good systems to generate a HTML/PDF from the wiki..."

A simple request from a complete beginner - can you include an explanation of what the 'draft' icon does - and 'it switches to and from daft mode' is not what I mean because I don't understand what draft mode means.

Cheers

Ian

I have the same question.  Did you ever get an answer to this? Thanks

Draft mode displays the drawing more quickly by leaving detail out of the display, particularly useful on slow computers. The function is not explained in the User Manual or wiki but there are references in the wiki faq that if things aren't visible then check that draft mode is not on.

The Draft button can cause confusion: If something suddenly disappears from view, check that Draft is not activated – if it is, it most likely has caused the disappearance

The Draft Mode button causes items to “disappear” when pressed
