No true "Wireframe" mode but ;)
Menu Options / Display Hidden-line curves
Options / Display Hidden-line edges

If you are owner of the Moi 1.1 you can load the V 2 beta who has more options of display Color Lights etc...

Hi carmine -

Actually the default is a kind of combination mode, because hidden lines and curves are displayed in a faint dashed line style and you can still select them. So there is the same access to curves and edges as you would have in a full wireframe mode.

That's why there isn't really a big need to have a full wireframe mode in MoI.

If you want to get a "more wireframe-like" mode, then you can actually select face sub-objects and hide them if you want. That's much easier in v2 where the scene browser lets you hide all faces with just one click.

Hi carmine, here's a quick demonstration image:




Notice there that it's actually not just a simple solid view, the edges that are hidden are displayed in a faint dashed line style, and you can also select them same as the front edges.

You can disable the hidden line display under Options > View if you want, but by default they are on and you should see them in your display.

They won't be very apparent in just a single sphere like you showed in your screenshot though since that has only one edge in it. If you make a model that is made up of more pieces and has more faces and edges in it then you will see them more easily.
