How to display mesh on surface in Freestyle?

[MGortner]

In Damian's freestyle video on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02qZ6Ez1zpI), the mesh is visible on the surface. How does one enable this?

When I started a primative, I only see the control box mesh...no mesh on the the surfaces.

Thanks,
Matt

Change your display setting to shading with edges.

[MGortner]

That does not help.

Maybe I misunderstood your question. Are you referring to these lines?

If so, then they show up once shading with edges is enabled. Just shading, no edges, shows this:

Thanks for the images. Still does not work on my system. But I tried it without loading my config files and now the lines show up. I will have to figure out if it's a config setting or a system color issue.

Ah, that explains it. see if setting the following back to *solid (default) helps:

tangent_edge_display

I should add that each time you extrude a face it creates a new "cell" in the mesh. Is that what you were referring to by a mesh?

[MGortner]

Yes, that's what I'm looking for.

tangent_edge_display = solid did the trick! Thanks! I had it set to "no".
