    Default Display of polylines is messed up in Model Space

    While working in AustoCAD Map 3D, I accidentally typed "3" in the command line and ACAD opened 3DORBIT. I exited from that, but now my lines are being displayed as either wireform or outlined. I had this happen once before but managed to get everything to display right, but I must have brain fog today because I can't figure out how to fix this.
    Everything displays correctly in the layout viewports, so at least it will plot OK. The lines behave OK, endpoints/nodes are selectable, but looking at this is driving me batty.

    Anyone have any ideas how to get my Model space to display correctly again?

    Let me try to post a snip of the drawing to show you what this weirdness looks like:

    I also attached a normal looking screen snip.

    Thanks!

    Turns out that it was in "WIREFRAME" and I needed to change it to realistic. It is close to what the original was, but not exactly how it looks before 3DORBIT got involved.

    Is there a setting that will turn the 3D Visual Styles off?

    It was Wireframe. 2Dwireframe is not even on the list of options, just 3DWireframe and Wireframe.
