Doom Builder: Disable Normals?

[Marscaleb]

Is there a way to disable the normals from being displayed on the map?

By which I mean: that short line that sticks out of every wall-line to show which way is the "front" of the wall.

Can I turn that off?  I know you it's important, but sometimes its in the way.

 

Also, is there a way to not display the nodes?  Or any sector line that is flat to adjacent sectors?  Basically like, a way to display the lines as they are shown in the auto-map in-game, but with textures and lighting?

In editor? 

Please, tell me, how do you imagine to see which way the line is facing without the little short lines?

Not display nodes? Why?

[Marscaleb]

Because what I'm trying to do is examine the geometry in a more pure state.  I'm not talking about permanently disabling everything.  But the extra lines and boxes get in the way of seeing the lines themselves, especially in tight regions.

Try brightness mode

Do normals still get displayed in sector mode? Suddenly can't remember if they do. Alternatively, it it really is just geometry you want to look at, there's Automap mode. It'll be in red and yellow, bit it's just the pure geometry of the shape rather than any patterning that comes from sector detailing or light level changes

There's an automap mode in Doom Builder?  I can't find it...

 

I just did a search and found a video where someone used that mode, but it was tied to a button I don't have.  Am I using an outdated copy, or is there some option that has hidden that toolbar?

Check out Ultimate Doom Builder.

This mode is here.

Yep, as @RastaManGames says, Ultimate Doom Builder is the latest version you're looking for. It's based off the older Doom Builder so will feel instantly familiar, but adds a bunch of stuff that's there if you go looking for it.
