Blender is a 3D computer graphics program that is free and open-source. Blender is used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, and video games.
Blender's interface uses OpenGL to provide a consistent experience across all platforms, including Windows, macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD.
One of the unique features of Blender is the ability to see the wireframe of an object in the 3D View. Wireframes are useful for seeing the underlying structure of an object and for troubleshooting issues with geometry.
To enable wireframes in the 3D View, go to the View menu and select Wireframe. Alternatively, you can press Shift+Z to toggle between wireframe and solid shading.
Wireframes can be customized in a number of ways. To change the color of the wireframes, go to the User Preferences and select the Interface tab. Under Theme, you can change the color of the 3D View wireframes.
Wireframes can also be changed to display as a solid, dashed, or dotted line. To change the type of line, go to the User Preferences and select the Interface tab. Under 3D View, you can change the wireframe display type.
Finally, you can also change the thickness of the wireframes. To do this, go to the User Preferences and select the Interface tab. Under 3D View, you can change the wireframe thickness.
