uv seams on mesh
A real simple question to which I hope there's a simple solution! I've been trying out the new UV tools in 2017, which I'm liking a lot, but I'm bugged by the fact that I can't see the UV seams in the viewport as you could in 2016. Anyone know how to enable this, or if it's still an option?

1. The typical Display>Polygons>Custom Polygon Display and check on texture borders
OR
2. Select the object(s). And in the UV Texture Editor, the icon to the left of the checker preview texture turns on texture borders.

sorry for the late response - I had no email notif. of your reply.
it doesn't seem to work the same in 2017 update 3 - the borders appear bold in the UV space, but not on the model in the viewport.
