Hide mesh edges in shaded view?

How do I hide mesh edges (wires) in the shaded view mode?

My use case is that I imported a 3D scanned STL file, that I now want to build some surfaces over, but the mesh edge rendering is cluttering my view of the mesh surface.

In Options>View>Display modes>Shaded, under Visibility, you can uncheck “Show mesh wires”.

You can also do this directly from the display panel if you have it open and the active viewport is in shaded mode.

Thank you!

This doesn’t seem to work anymore. I went into options and turned off Show Mesh Wires in shaded mode and the object disappears COMPLETELY from the viewport. Not sure what I’m doing wrong.
