I can't seem to find anything in the settings - does anyone know if this is achievable?<BR /> <BR /> thanks</T></DIV> Tue, 23 May 2023 14:32:09 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/hidden-lines-in-3d-wireframe/m-p/117892#M62212 Anonymous 2023-05-23T14:32:09Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/hidden-lines-in-3d-wireframe/m-p/117893#M62213 You are confusing wireframe and hidden lines.
