In all the tutorials I've seen when adding text the default text has a shaded/solid face. My default is just an outline/'faceless'. I'm using 2.80 beta Thanks

Edit 1: Right,the question is why. Thanks for the suggestion and feedback.

Edit 2: Israel -The question is why. I haven't changed any defaults. If you can answer your second question; '../ turn it to solid face?' then that would be a helpful workaround.

Edit 3: This can be closed. I had this problem using Ubuntu (compiled from source) When I installed and tried Blender in Windows it worked correctly. I re-compiled (very easy just make update and make) and moved the userpref.blend. It works. I restored the userpref.blend and it still works. Thanks for the help

  • $\begingroup$ Is it why? Or how you can turn it to solid face? $\endgroup$ – Israel Bamidele May 16 '19 at 5:09
  • $\begingroup$ What display mode (Z) are you in? $\endgroup$ – batFINGER May 16 '19 at 18:40
  • $\begingroup$ I ask, as I am on ubuntu, build blender from source, and the result above looks same as i get for render view, no light in scene. (EEVEE) $\endgroup$ – batFINGER May 16 '19 at 19:11

  • $\begingroup$ Bamidele Thanks for the answer, Fill mode must have been set to 'none'. $\endgroup$ – ajlogo May 17 '19 at 17:10
