Only select visible

How can you do it so that when you do the box select or ctrl + click select you only select the visible faces/lines/verts instead of all of them

You’re not being too clear. Do you mean that when you box select, you select verts on the other side of the object as well?

If so, you need to press the small cube button (second from last on the right, viewport header (bottom of the viewport) in edit mode.) The tooltip of the button is ‘occlude background geometry’.

Hey thanks a lot. I think I remember seeing that somewhere before but I couldn’t remember. And yeah sorry, it was kind of hard for me to describe, but that’s what I was talking about.
