Request to show plane edges in object mode

Hello guys I would like to request a feature where you can see the outline of a line or plane in the object mode. Currently it is only possible in edit mode or wireframe mode.

Thanks.

This is already possible. In Object Properties. Enable the Wireframe check box in the Viewport Display panel.

* @Jason van Gumster * In object mode, it is not showing up. I am somewhat wondering why it is not visible in this mode. There might be a reason but there are times when you just want to see the work in the object mode perspective.

* @johnpdelacruz26 * It's working for me though: demo pic

Maybe check with the latest 2.8 build, there's a new one almost everyday.

* @-L0Lock- * Thanks for the reply. I see what you are referring to but what I mean in this feature is for blender to show the outline of an object without enabling the wireframe mode. The are times when a user might prefer just to see the model without the wireframes.

* @johnpdelacruz26 * there is outline option but it not work in this case. But you can enable wireframe for object at least. And if you use solidify for thickness + outline for objects, you will see this.
