Temporarily hide selection highlights during a command or GB transform?

[wim (Wim Dekeyser)]

Hi Hannes -

@hannesgrebinwork

1. Is there a way to switch it on and off during a command?

No. There are some scripts and a plug-in that were posted in this thread:

Is it possible to have objects when selected not have the highlighting that signifies an object is selected?

Hi Mikele - If you are looking to completely turning off any highlighting on selected objects, you’ll have to use the plug-in or scripts that have been provided in this thread. In Rhino 8, we are working on silhouette highlighting of selected objects. -wim

If those are surfaces in that picture, you could, in the Filters panel, select the Sub-objects option and deselect the Control Points option.
