2D Wireframe Displays the objects using lines and curves to represent the
boundaries. Raster and OLE objects, linetypes, and lineweights are visible.
3D Wireframe Displays the objects using lines and curves to represent the
boundaries. Material colors that you have applied to the objects are shown.
Hidden Displays the objects using 3D wireframe representation and hides
lines representing back faces.
Flat Shaded Shades the objects between the polygon faces. The objects appear
flatter and less smooth than Gouraud-shaded objects. Materials that you have
applied to the objects show when the objects are flat shaded.
Gouraud Shaded Shades the objects and smooths the edges between polygon
faces. This gives the objects a smooth, realistic appearance. Materials that you
have applied to the objects show when the objects are Gouraud shaded.
