precise modelling and seeing the sturcture of your objects.

2. Solid view; in this view, you see the objects as solid, shaded surfaces. it's the default view and provides a good balance
between visual representation and performance.

3. Rendered view: this view provides a real time preview of your scene as it would look when rendered. it includes materials,
lighting, and any textures you've applied.

4. Material preview: this view approximates materials and lighting, giving you a more realistic preview of how objects will
appear when rendered.
