user113534: I would like to use bitcoin core as a wallet only - to generate addresses and to sign transactions.
So I don't want it to download the blockchain.
Is there a bitcoin.conf setting for this?

user13866: Using the -h option gives a list of all available options including

-networkactive
Enable all P2P network activity (default: 1). Can be changed by the setnetworkactive RPC command

I haven't tried setting that to zero.
