6.8.2   Visualization Parameters

Click Set Parameters (via the context menu or the menu Visualization) to open the Visualization Parameters. This dialog allows convenient access to the visualization settings of the active graphics window. Most of the settings are also available as individual menu entries in the menu Visualization but some more advanced settings are only provided in this dialog. An interactive preview is provided, which visualizes the current settings.

Select Graphics Window  
(only with multiple graphics windows)

Each graphics window keeps its own private set of visualization settings. When multiple graphics windows are opened in the current session, you can switch between the settings of the different graphics windows by selecting the corresponding window handle magic value.

This check box corresponds to the setting of Menu Visualization Apply Changes Immediately.

Otherwise, the parameters become active for the next display of an object (double-click an icon or execution of an operator).
