 Starting with LON-CAPA 2.10, a Domain Coordinator can configure default 
 settings for courses in the domain. Defaults are of two types:

+\begin{itemize}
+\item Student formula entry uses inline preview, not DragMath pop-up
+
+For problems that require a formula input via a textbox, the default is to
+show the math expression in a previewer below the textbox, as the student types.
+The alternative is to use the older (Java-based) DragMath pop-up which allows 
+the student to compose the expression in a WYSIWYG-style editor in a pop-up window
+and then save it to the textbox in the main window using a ``Save and Close'' button.
+
+\item Molecule editor uses JSME (HTML5) in place of JME (Java)
+
+For problems that require the student to ``draw'' an organic structure using a
+molecule editor, the default is to use the HTML5 version (JSME).  The alternative
+is to use the older (Java-based) JME editor.

+The default is for the ``Submit Answer'' button in the current page to be disabled for 60s following
