edge viewing

[Stroker]

"Show Edge"
Right click in the upper-left of the viewport.

Or are you looking how to show the "cage"? If that's the case, then go down the stack and click "Show End Result" or whatever it's called.

was looking for a way to get the same kind of line viewing as is showin in the lightwave.

spoken with a lot of peeps, look like it's not possible.

[Stroker]

Ah... I get what you looking for.

As far as I know, like I'm an expert or something, it can't be done straight out of the box. Hell, I don't even know if it can be done with a script or something.

Hey..

theres a way of doing this in max out of the box:

on your stack, add these modifiers on top of your Editable Poly:

Relax
Edit Patch
Turn to Patch
------------
Editable Poly


You need the Turn to Patch modifier to have quad patches,
in Edit Patch, put View Iterations to something like 4 and Uncheck Show interior Edges
now in the Relax modifier put Iterations to 3 or 4.

after that go back to Editable Poly and check Show End Result

that way you'll have a nice subdivision with less edges showing, kinda like in lightwave
