Choosing wireframe or shade mode


You can display objects in wireframe or shade mode.

The options in the View menu affect all four viewports. Right-clicking a viewport brings up a context menu with the same options, but only the selected viewport is affected. You can also set a specific webcam to display either a shade or wireframe view of the World.


To set all viewports to wireframe or shade mode:

Choose View > Wireframe or press Shift+W.

To set one viewport to wireframe or shade mode:

Right-click the viewport and choose Wireframe or press W.

To set a webcam to wireframe or shade mode:

In the World Explorer, select the webcam, then turn on/off Shade in the Parameter Editor. For more information, see WebCams.
