Wireframe not visible in Rhino7 for Windows

What did I do wrong to mess with the settings to hide all wireframe lines. Please help!!! Thanks!

If you messed up, best is to reset the display setting you changed to default first.

Thank you for the response, I restored defaults on the ‘View’, but without success!!! Still no wireframe…

pls run _SystemInfo and post back the results in that case.

where should I run this?

…I found it:
here the result:

Running Rhino for Windows on a Mac via Parallels is not an officially supported configuration.

I had it working, but somehow I don’t know why the wireframe is not working anymore… I must have changed something …???

You changed something, Rhino changed something, Parallels changed something, we have no idea…that’s why it’s unsupported. It is at your own risk.

@max47 since you have an intel Mac, you have three options:

  • Run the native Mac version of Rhino
  • Use BootCamp
  • Sell the mac and get a PC

If you rely on Rhino for Windows, the latter is the best option.

Thanks to all, I installed the native Mac version of Rhino and it works!!!
