prop hitbox rendering

[nothing_cool]

when a prop or entity is placed, the 3D model window shows the basic hitbox of the item and not the texture of the item itself until I enter the yellow/red box, yellow being a prop, red being a pickup/entitiy.
Any ieda of how to turn this off or change it in some other way so I can see the prop?

In your 3D view options, you can adjust the distance at which props will begin to render. Most people have this set to the maximum, although you may need to fine tune your settings depending on your computer's power.

You'll find Options at the bottom, which will bring up a menu with all sorts of ways to customize the way Hammer behaves.
