Wireframes in viewport

Question

I was eventually able to discover that the simple wireframe geometry shown in the video is accessible by enabling it on object properties under viewport display, but this was not default when opening the lesson files on Blender 5.1.1 on linux. Not sure if it warrants a callout or not.

Hi Nathan,

Thanks I will looking the save file.

This might help you out too. There are 2 places to control the wireframe visibility.

One is on the viewport overlays (this will show all wireframes for all objects)
look at where the mouse cursor is in the image below.

And the other is in the Object Properties as you have described.
This one is a per-object setting.
