When you start the blend command, NX automatically changes the view rendering style?
That sounds... odd. I don't know of an OOTB option to change the view style when starting a particular command.
I don't have NX2007 installed, but I don't see any such option in NX1919 or NX2206.

I think what you're after is the See-Thru Style (see image) in Preferences -> Visualisation, there's 3 options to try.

Anthony, I just tried all of those, nothing seemed to do it

this is what I'm talking about, when i pick the blend command, after i pick an object, the display changes to dull shaded,
I'd like it to be wire frame so i can see every edge...
OH, hang on, I just started the command, then drag-selected, the wireframe view, and i got what I wanted......Maybe thats as close as I can get?
Unless anything else springs to mind?

Are you aware of these three options ?
Pretty useful depending on the situation .

Toost,
No I didn't, but I want the full wireframe so they don't really help that much,
but thanks for the reply

Are you working in the context of an assembly or a single part file?

Normally, I'd be in the part, but it looks the same if I do it from the assembly as well. (that image is a test file with lots of bodies in it)
