Draft saved?

Dear Moderators/Fellow Farmers,
I'm very slow at typing and every time I'm preparing a thread, or post to another thread, I see dimly from time to time that "Draft saved" message.....How do I retrieve this draft? I'm not talking about me actively using the "save draft" button, I'm talking about the whatever automatic function......I already lost a few pearls of wisdom (in my opinion) due to forgetting to save after pages of writing (or anytime in between), only to see something like "You're not connected to a network" or something similarly funny.
Any answer, other than "use your head", would be appreciated.....(this took me about 37 minutes of thinking and typing, just to show what I'm losing)

 

Hello Michael1877,

As you type, at certain intervals, the draft gets saved. In other words you can start typing a message, and if you visit another page and come back, your text will still be visible. However, if you get disconnected from the internet, you will loose everything you have typed.
As you type, at intervals, if you choose "save draft", even if you loose internet or forum closes, when you go back to that thread, your draft should be saved.

Can I assist you further?

 

That was the answer I was afraid of, that this draft will be lost with the loss of connection......I'll try to train myself to use the Save button actively......Thank you for the superfast reply.....
You may close...

 

You are welcome.

Practice makes perfect, or in this case "permanent"
