how to turn off the back faces/edges when in wireframe? (maya)

kreativ

Hi,

I am working on modeling a character from the front view and want to turn off back edges, etc when in wireframe since all the clutter is making it hard for me to see whats going on. Pls help.

found what i was looking for. hide backfaces in modeling toolkit.

just one question. I dont wanna see backfaces, but I still want to have them selected whilst the front faces are moved, and move along with the front faces. This way I can line-up the front faces with my front reference image and know that backfaces are following too, without the backfaces interfering.
