Hello,
i would ask, if there is a way to configure blender for the following selection-possibilitys: when i click on an vertex, this vertex is selected. now i want to drag a box-selection without hit a button, (in default b) and want to select automatically all vertex, that in the selection, also the vertex, they are behind other vertex. this i want to be do, without enable the limit selection to visible, or change to wireframe. to drag a box selection i found in the user-preferences. But i cant`t configure, that then automatically all vertex in box are selected. is there a simple way to configure that? i believe in maya there is such a selection modus. i find it realy a fast way to select, without clicking some buttons.
