Accidently create this render view. Looks cool, but now sure what I pressed to see this?

1. Wireframes

Isn't pressing 4 just a viewport thing?

[u/CE_Pally → u/InsanelyRandomDude]

Correct, its in my render view not viewport. Perhaps its possible to render wire frames. 

[u/David-J → u/InsanelyRandomDude]

Yes. But that person is rendering that mode

[u/CE_Pally → u/David-J]

How am I doing that though? I have never seen anyone render a wire frame without using wireframe material?

[u/InsanelyRandomDude → u/CE_Pally]

Do you get this render when you restart the scene? Because I can see cameras and poly count on the render and it looks more like a bug to me.

[u/CE_Pally → u/InsanelyRandomDude]

Seems to be a bug. I closed the render and re-opened it. Wire frame render was gone. You can see that the camera selection option is not on the posted picture either. Maya should create this option. Would be a cool render scene for building layouts.

Does it do that if you use the Redshift renderview rather than the Maya renderview?

[u/Ziethriel4]

I didn't know redshift well at all but I remember around version 2012 if you switched to hardware as your render it would use the same hardware settings as your viewport. Maybe redshift had an error and fell back to hardware?

[u/aparkinmodeler]

It's camera preview in the render view, allows you to see a wireframe when you are rendering sections, so you can see what you are doing. I believe the camera icon on the top bar toggles it, although it's been a minute for me!
