No. It "hides" comments. Variations remain intact.

True. My idea of trial mode is that you can - literally - try something 
out on the board without actually changing the game. A scratch pad mode.

I do not understand why comments should be hidden. PLUS hitting ctrl/z 
in the pgn window (immediately after enabling trial mode) restores the 
comments without leaving trial mode.

This is strange, isn't it? Why remove the comments in the first place...

Cheers,
