Closed, ArchivedPublic

Description

--- Operating System, Graphics card ---
Windows 7 x64, gtx 580

--- Blender version with error, and version that worked ---
fail with r59044
fail with r46883

--- Short description of error ---
If the Viewport is hidden and you do a opengl render, wireframe objects are not rendered


--- Steps for others to reproduce the error (preferably based on attached .blend file) ---
1. open attached file
2. go to the render menu -> OpenGL Render Image
3. Observe that wire is not there
4. make 3d viewport visible
5. render menu -> OpenGL Render Image
6. Observe that wire is there

Event Timeline

This happens because If there is a 3d viewport, its settings are used, if not defaults are used.

The default that causes this is 'Nkey Panel -> Display -> Only Render'.

I would note this in wiki docs but it seems there are not even basic docs for opengl render in our wiki.
