Okay, opening a model: a rug, a chair, or a person; all come up fine, except they are in the wire-frame mesh mood they were created in. I can't seem to locate a door to exit this particular feature.

If I wanted to do a little color tinting, or create a wart, I would-a opened Blender, but you see, I'm lazy. Anybody know where I can find such a door in DAZ.

Actually, I not real familiar with DAZ 4.7 work space yet.

Any help will receive a thank you.

I'll probably be back.

    I think Texture shaded is what you are looking for.

    Little sphere next to the long button with the camera/view name

    Or cmd/ctrl plus a number key - 9 is texture shaded

    I'm back. I'm sure you know exactly where and what you're talking about, but (sorry) I don't. I looked for the long camera view button next to a little sphere.

    I'm Mac OS X indentured, therefore cmd/ctrl 9, for Windows or Linux users probably won't work.

    Which side of the work space is the long button with the camera view name should I look on? Left or right?

    In any case, I promised a thanks you, so thank you for the help.

    cmd is for a MAC, Ctrl is for windows.

    and It's to the right in 4.7 but moved to the left in 4.8

    Thanks for that help I don't actually use DS, so can never post screen shots like that. :red:

    Let's make sure this is purely a display issue. Does the image render correctly? if not, do you get a warning on loading the content about missing assets?

    Yes, I understand cmd is a Mac kb function, what I meant, I wasn't desirous of turning my Mac into a PC.

    In any event, I believe the version I'm running is 4.7, so I should look on right. Okay, I am - still can't locate what you described.

    Please believe me, I do thank you for the help. As I said, I'm a newbie with DAZ.

    On a Mac cmd-9 should trigger Texture shaded view, on Windows it's ctrl-9. But SizDs shows wheer to find the icon - click the sphere to get a list of draw styles (if that is your issue).

    Okay, got it. The screen shot did the trick. The wire mesh completely disguised the globe, Negative, it is not a display issue. It was pilot error.

    Did I see a quote about aging? I concur, please notice my sign off, js36. 1936 was the year I was born, so who says you can't teach old dogs new tricks. I'm not trying to age as gracefully as I can, I am!

    Thanks all of you for the help.
