Hi I seem to have toggled wireframe and I can't get out of it or is this wireframe at all? I hit Z and nothing changes

The most likely culprit is the object draw mode (Properties Window > Object Tab > Display > Maximum Draw Type)

enter image description here

Set it back to Textured if you want to be able to go to textured view (and to Solid if not).

  • sorry what is "options window"? I cant see it – Dave Goateze Dec 20 '15 at 17:41
  • The Properties window is where you set materials, textures, render settings, etc. It's by default on the right of the screen. You can see it on the lower right of part the screen in the image above. https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro/Properties_Window – TLousky Dec 20 '15 at 17:47

  • You're right @brasshat, my bad. – TLousky Dec 20 '15 at 17:51

    @Dave Goateze, I don't think you can add pictures to a comment. The next best thing is to post the image you want to use to a website somewhere, and create a link to the location of the image. But in my opinion, rather than asking a question in a comment, it is better to ask a new question. – brasshat Dec 20 '15 at 18:05

One thing to check is that you have not inadvertently set wireframe as the maximum display type for the object. In the properties editor, object tab, in the bottom left of the "display" pane is a submenu "Maximum Draw Type". Check to see that this is not set to "wireframe".

This is where it is in my preferred interface setup:

For future users that might run into the same issue who may benefit from a visual showing the solution to the issue, I thought I'd add a gif demonstrating the steps as outlined in the previous answers. enter image description here
