Preferences for the display of objects

Show	Sets the attributes that will appear on the screen. NOTE: Apart from the commands Dimensions and View flute symbols in layout drawings, the commands in the Show section produce identical effects as the commands that you find when you double-click in the graphical area, and then point to Show.
Constraints	Displays the constraints in drawings.
Control points	Displays the control points in drawings.
Centers	Displays the center points of arcs and circles in drawings.
Axes	Displays the coordinate axes in drawings.

Composite styles	Displays how composite styles actually appear when applied to the media.
Style symbols	Displays the marks (images) that designate the styles when the drawing is viewed on the screen or is printed out. NOTE: The use of style symbols is optional. Learn how to designate marks to styles.
Front/Rear side marker	Displays the Print/Rear side marker, which indicates if the design is facing its print or die side. To change the design orientation, in the graphical area right-click, point to Show, and then ensure that View Front Side is not checked.
View flute symbol in layout drawings	When this check box is selected, the flute/grain symbol appears in layout 1ups. NOTES: If the flute/grain direction of a 1up is changed, the flute/grain symbol appears again for each layout 1up whose flute/grain direction is different from the newly set. In a layout, if a new layout 1ups is added whose flute/grain is different from that of the layout and this has led to the change of the flute/grain direction of the layout, the flute/grain symbol appear even if they have been suppressed. If the flute/layout symbol is never to appear on layout drawings regardless of any of the above changes, switch off the material's awareness to the flute or grain (in the Drawing Material Properties dialog box).
Sheet size information	When a sheet is in a drawing, the sheet size appears in the sheet's upper left corner, outside the sheet border. The size is displayed in the set default units and precision — for example, 1016.00 x 762.00.
