The built-in display modes are:

Wireframe: The classic CAD working mode: an unshaded wireframe.
Shaded: Shaded mode uses a mesh to shade surfaces using the layer colors.
Rendered: A fast simulation of the rendered object.
Ghosted: A semi-transparent shaded mode, great for seeing the inside of models.
X-Ray: Wireframe and point objects are shown, even if they would be hidden by surfaces in front of them.
Technical: Uses real-time silhouettes and intersections, creases, borders, blending shaded and rendered display.
Artistic: Simulates a pencil drawing with soft lines.
Pen: Get the look of a pen drawing with black lines.

Monochrome: Combines the effects of a white studio look and a sketch feel.
Arctic: Turns all objects white, turns the background white, and adds soft shadows.
