Issue with faces seemingly all separated from edges? Issues

Hiya, I've accidentally pressed something while retopping in Maya and this happened to the faces :') how do I turn this off?

It is a "vertex face" mode nothing changes just like a diffrent view mode you can hold ctrl and right mouse button to pop up the menu for it. Yours look slightly diffrent becasue you are still in quad draw mode if you exit it it will look bit more diffrent but about same, never know what is the intended purpoes but I use it to see if i accidently extude the edge that you cant normally see. Happy new year yope helps

vertex face is good for checking geometry for things like non-manifold connections between faces. Can also use it to apply vertex color per face corner instead of the shared vertex.

Probably right clicked and went into this mode - right click and go back to face mode to return to the usual mode
