how to turn the junction levers off for screenshots?

I know this sounds noobish, but how does one make the junction names & arrows disappear? It gets annoying having those photobomb your screenshots.
 
Another tip - if you happen to need to use Surveyor to take the screenshot, use Ctrl and the space bar to achieve a similar effect (repeat the process to revert it back).

Shane,

I think that only works to toggle the flyouts on/off screen. So, if Surveyor has the Track flyout selected, with the Add object button pressed, the arrows won’t disappear.

It can sometimes be better to select another flyout first, preferably Topology (F1), or Paint (F2) where arrows never show (unless your cursor is floating over a junction). However, in Surveyor, the compass will always show, unless you use the Walk or Fly options...

To walk: Hold Alt whilst typing walk in older versions. Alt + Y in newer versions.

To fly: Hold Alt whilst typing fly in older versions. Alt + U in newer versions.

To go at double speed when walking and flying, hold Ctrl whilst using your navigation keys.

I find the Fly option best for Surveyor based screenshots, not just because it clears the clutter very effectively, but because it allows complete freedom to travel in all three dimensions where you can get some really great angles.

Here you can find plenty more hints.
