Make the background color brighter.
I think when editing SubDEdges there is a visual indicator,
active edge’s, when dragging, are dark other get’s bright,
the colors from background overlap with “visual indicator” SubDEdges color.

Thanks, that was it :slight_smile:

What I find a bit weird is that on a brep / extrusion the edges affected by the transition are greyed out and the not affected remain and on SubD it is the opposite…

I ran into the same problem again today and after some time remembered it wasn’t the first time…

I like my dark screen color so the object display has to change. The setting which affects this is in Appearance / Colors and it’s the Locked objects color. I set it to a dark blue.

Other visual effect for curves.
For Crv, i have set the ugliest color, and px to 3.
If curve overlaps with surface edge thus curves shine through surface edges.

Magenta is much uglier. Just saying.
