Bug introduced in 10.0 or earlier and fixed in 12.0


Boxed is an Option for Graph3D, however I cannot get it to work.

Graph3D[ButterflyGraph[3], Boxed -> True] 

does not draw a box

I can set it via:

SetOptions[Graph3D, Boxed -> True];
MemberQ[Options[Graph3D], Boxed -> True] (*test*)
(* True *)

Graph3D[ButterflyGraph[3]]

But this does not work either.

    $\begingroup$ You should probably report this to support; in the meantime, try Show[Graph3D[ButterflyGraph[3]], Boxed -> True]. $\endgroup$ Mar 14, 2019 at 5:55
  • $\begingroup$ @J.M. Thanks; that converts it to a Graphics3D object ... pro's and con's but it works ... $\endgroup$

Using "Boxed" instead of Boxed works:

Graph3D[ButterflyGraph[3], "Boxed" -> True]

  • $\begingroup$ indeed it does ... however seems inconsistent with use of Boxed elsewere as well as other option settings for Graph3D ?? What am I missing? $\endgroup$
