Hi to all
I´m a beginner, but quite excited how quick I could start after reading some manuals.
I have a problem with Text. In draft mode text is only shown as frame, but not the text.
Switching to print preview the text appears, but not the frame (it´s ok the frame does not appear).
How can I switch make the text visible in draft mode as well?
Thanks for your help as well.
Regards Ingo

Welcome @Ingo N!

It's the intention of Draft mode to disable text for faster rendering, so there is no way for text in Draft mode.
Unless you have a really big drawing, draft mode brings no benefits.
It just disables line width and hatches and replaces text and images with their surrounding box.

Print preview ignores draft mode of course and shows text, but not the surrounding box.

Hi Armin
Thanks for this explanation - it answers also my next question why hatching don't appear in draft mode.
Kind regards
