draftmode: documentation suggestions
draftmode really works, but neither df nor draftmode appear in the manual index. Both should appear there. I am sure there is a way to turn draftmode off on the command line, but have had difficulty finding the way. A hint in the draftmode discussion sec 11.3 would help. For example, one could write...

draftmode
Oh my. This is simple. By creating a box with multiple lines so I can tell if draftmode is off or on, and clicking on the red pencil the multiple lines appear and disappear (there is a popup I have not silenced about draftmode, but that is fine). The menu item does not change in any way, but draftmo...

draftmode
draftmode appears to be enabled (right mouse on the red pencil says this). That is consistent with not showing long text, just the box. Neither draftmode nor df appear in the index, and search in the manual does not seem to find either, though chapter 11 shows the menu (without explaining much, see ...

how do I copy from one layer to another
This is actually (using pr) a 'move' operation, not a copy.
But it is useful, thanks.

how do I copy from one layer to another
Within one drawing my attempts to copy the contents of a layer
using copy/paste have failed. The paste shows the contents till I
click (left mouse) on the target site in the newly selected (empty) layer
and then the newly selected layer is apparently still blank.

text length limit?
v 2.1.3.2 on Fedora Core 6. A text box with "Ream center bore 17 mm" shows on the drawing ok. A text box with "Ream center bore 17 mm exactly" shows a blank box on the drawing. Whether entered as 1 line or two in the text entry panel. Editting the text box back and forth this is repeatable. Height ....

A simple set of vertical lines
Just discovered that View->toolbars->Tool options (with tool options checked) gets me an 'amost an Options Toobar' in that a tooltip in a blank area says Length Of Line but the Length and Snap Point in the ref man section 17.3 don't appear. I vaguely recall they *did* appear once a few minutes ago...

A simple set of vertical lines
Inexperienced cad/qcad user! I did one (very useful) drawing a few months ago, so more or less starting from scratch here as I've forgotten a lot... Wanting to enter a set of simple vertical lines, I find that the reference manual gives *no* complete concrete examples of command lines to do this. Th...
