Having mapped for several years using hammer and it's predecessor's i havn't really been inclined to research anything new about it, as everything i currently know gets me by quite efficiently. Some of the newer mappers (and i am only embarresing myself infront of them) may already be aware of this function, having bumped into it whilst reading more up to date tutorials than i have.

Anyway, boasting about my years of experience (that have come to little) aside. I discovered this neat little toggle button. I wont elaborate anymore as the image is quite self explanitory. (Also note, the fade prediction button for models, 4 buttons over to the right).

Normally a mapper may never encounter/produce a situation where there is a displacement at such acute angles which a player is supposed to climb (as it normally looks terrible ugly) but for those who do..

funny, I just saw this in hammer the other day, I had it's purpose exactly opposite of what it does, needless to say I've found the right answer

So basically, displacements at an angle greater than 45 degrees that the player can't walk up are shown in yellow? Sweet.
