Default Uses of Draft Mode (called Normal pre-Word 2007)

It appears from a recent post here that one can access the pane for
the "footnote separator" ONLY in Draft Mode (called Normal in Word 2003
and earlier).

Are there other dialog boxes, features, controls, views, etc. that
can be accessed ONLY in Draft (Normal) Mode? (I assume that if there
were such items in Word 2003, the likelihood is that such continues in
Word 2007.)

Hi David,

With the exception that when you mention 'only' in draft view, it often also includes Outline view.

Some examples

The style area on the left of the view is exclusive to draft & outline views.

Graphics/shapes/ objects that are other wrapped/float (i.e. other than 'inline with text') do not appear in draft or outline view
(although they do appear in the Thumbnails pane that you can open along side of Draft view.

Multiple text columns from Print Layout view appear all as a single stream or text in Draft view, although Draft view does use the
width of a column as the 'margin' lines.

Text that is rotated in Print Layout view, isn't in Draft view, except in the Thumbnails pane.

Themes, page background colors, watermarks, page borders - are items that do not appear in Draft/Outline views.

Track change 'balloons' do not appear in draft or outline view.

Draft view isn't an accurate representation of how a document will print.

The Footnote pane appears in Draft, Outline and Web views.

What you've summarized is primarily things that you *can't* see or do in
Draft/Normal/Outline view, whereas I think what David was asking was about
things that *can* be done only in Draft/Normal.

Bob,

Thanks for the comparison. Very helpful.

As I went down the list it appears that there is just one other
feature available in Draft view and *not* in Print Layout view: the
styles area on the left margin (when enabled in Options).

So, it looks like there are two features that cannot be used in
Print Layout and must be accessed from Draft view -- (a) the styles area
at the left margin showing the style for the adjacent paragraph and (b)
the footnote pane.

David

Hi Suzanne,

Actually, I listed some that were available only there and some that are not available there. Feel free to add your reply to the
original posting with other features you may think of
