Display Toggles
Display toggles are used to turn various elements of the display on or off. Refer to the table below for a list of the available functions. Once a display toggle is set, it will remain active until it is toggled again. Some of these commands are available from Tool Bars while others are selected from the View Menu.
View 
Perspective/Orthographic
(Object/Part/Sketch Level)
A perspective display is one that alters that visual aspect of the part to make it appear to have more depth. This command is not logged as an undo/redo event. This display mode is set in addition to other modes such as wireframe or shaded.
View Labels (Object/Part/Sketch
Level)
As new entities are created, labels (similar to name tags) are generated. When label are toggled on, they are displayed as the cursor passes over and highlights and entity. This command is not logged as an undo/redo event.

View Display (Object/Part/Sketch
Level)
All redraws (from dynamic viewing, layer management, redraw command, etc.) are disabled when the display is toggled off. This command can be used while working with large models, when a single redraw may take a long time. This command is not logged as an undo/redo event.
Toggle Dimensions
(Ctrl+D) (3D)
Tool Bar (Part/Sketch
Level)
This command toggles the display of all dimensions (in the active part only). Other components in an assembly must be activated first and then this command applied.

View (Part/Sketch/CAM Level)
This command toggles the display of datum planes that reside outside the active part (i.e., the components in an assembly). External datums are shown using dashed lines to reduce screen clutter.
Toggle Dynamic
Preview (3D/2D)
View (Part/Sketch/Sheet/CAM Level)
This command toggles the display of the echo used to preview features. For some 3D block entities such as large point clouds and imported STL data, the dynamic preview echo can drag system performance considerably.
Tool Bar (Part
Level)
This command toggles the display of all part level attributes including fillet radius attributes tags and offset face attribute tags.
Tool Bar Icon (Sketch/Sheet Level)
This command toggles the display of the sketch/drawing sheet grid.
Tool Bar (Sketch/Sheet
Level)
This command toggles the current line limits setting
at the sketch and drawing sheet levels. While this icon is depressed,
the current line limits are not active.
Toggle Construction Geometry
(2D)
Tool Bar (Sketch/Sheet
Level)
This command toggles the display of construction geometry at the sketch and drawing sheet levels. While this icon is turned on (depressed), all geometry created will be designated as construction geometry. At the sketch level, construction geometry is evaluated when the sketch is solved but is not considered part of the sketch profile. See also Toggle Curve Type.
Toggle Sketch
Constraints (2D)
The command-line
command "!CdPartRelabel" can be used to assign new unique labels
to the faces and edges of a part -- in the case that faces and edges are
found to have identical labels. Typically,
this situation should not arise, but may exist in older parts (e.g. version
5) that used the history "Encapsulate" command.
