I can say I've never encountered the evil being that is demo mode, but I've known many who have, and it should be feared. If you are working is demo mode you will NOT be able to print. You will NOT be able to save. The worst thing is, people usually don't know they're in demo mode until halfway through the project and they go to save and it says, "Working in demo mode. File not saved."FAIL!
Demo mode is usually a result of going on and off the VPN. You shouldn't have a problem with this if you are working on the Stout network. Someone is going to have to educate me on whether or not there is a prompt that comes up to enter demo mode or if it does it on its own, having been able to evade it thus far myself.
The best way to combat it, save often. Always double check. If you find you're in demo mode take some screen shots so you can remember your work. Say goodbye to your drawing. Close the program and reboot the computer. And go to this link on ask5000 for more info: http://helpdesk.uwstout.edu/kb/resolution.asp?q_id=220
Feel free to share your demo mode horror stories. It's good to vent.
jajajajaja this is totally funny, what is possible that this have a error so evident? well is this is a error, because many programmers put this as a joke, is like WolframAlpha, if you ask "are you skynet?"
