Is it possible to have objects when selected not have the highlighting that signifies an object is selected?

Hi, no - you should actually have a command available that can by typed with autocomplete or tied to a keyboard shortcut or an alias. Please follow instructions from here, just make sure you have the latest version of the script:

Bind for Temporarily Disabling Highlight?

Hi Brenda, Use this one: ToggleSelectionHighlight.rvb (1.6 KB) Save it on your computer and drag-and-drop into Rhino. From there, it will add an alias: ‘ToggleSelectionHighlight’ to run as a command. You can also make a button that calls ToggleSelectionHighlight command. I will let you figure out how to do that. To bind it to a key combo, go to Options > Keyboard, find a combination that works for you and add the same ToggleSelectionHighlight alias. –jarek
