When you press [Pt], [Ln], and [Fc] buttons in edit option or view option at the top of 3D picture with a click
on the right side, you can switch it in order.
If you click [Si] in view option on the top of 3D picture with pressing the right side of the mouse, you can
select ON/OFF of simplified display of patch, mirror, lathe, and blob.

Ideas for faster display
Remove all checks in menu [View].
Press [Si] button (Show patches and blobs simply) and [Fr] button (Show only front lines) at the title in each
view.
Make the number of dividing patches in the object selected with patches smaller while working.
Divide into as many objects as you can and hide objects which are unnecessary for editing.
Remove the checks of [Show precisely], [Show textures], and [Smoothing] if they are unnecessary.
Widen the lattice intervals of blobs.
Check which of Direct3D and OpenGL works faster or which property makes faster display like those in [Benchmark].
Lower [Max resolution of texture] in Configuration.
Make the size of the window smaller.
System
If you boot the PC after deleting metaseq.ini file, configuration goes back to initial setting.
When you don't use Direct 3D or Open GL, the PC boots a little faster if you remove a check in Configuration.
