If one is for example writing a big heading (think of making a poster for a sale, then you want the word SALE in big letters) it feels like an unecessary step to have to go to the story editor to enter something like 10 letters... I would very much appreciate a "draft" mode where the text rendering is faster (maybe even a setting like "Don't render text below xx points"). (Ok, I'm using very slow machines, but I can live with that it takes 10 minutes to export to a PDF (since I can have a cup of coffee while that happens) but it's a lot more frustrating to have to wait 15-30 seconds for the canvas to redraw just because I adjusted a heading. OTOH I think there is some patch now preventing complete redraw when doing a small change?) /Peter
