DefaultBoxStyle
is a low-level option for three-dimensional graphics functions that specifies the default style to use in rendering the bounding box.
Details

- DefaultBoxStyle->style specifies that the bounding box should effectively be replaced by Style[box,style].
- BoxStyle is applied after DefaultBoxStyle.
- For Graphics3D, the default setting is DefaultBoxStyle->"Graphics3DBox".
- DefaultBoxStyle->{} introduces no default style specifications, thereby effectively allowing all outside style specifications in.
- DefaultBoxStyle->style makes any specifications in style override corresponding outside style specifications.
