Hi there,
I believe this has been requested for meshes, but just wondering if there is the possibility of having transparency to the selection colour? Especially with hatches, it’s very difficult to see what’s in the selection, or for example, from where to move something (in this case; hatches and curves.

Hi Jeremy -
This has been requested for all types of objects. We tried to come up with something earlier in the Rhino 8 WIP stage but didn’t land on anything that worked good enough. This will probably be looked at again later.
There are several reports but I’ve added this thread here:
→ RH-17045 Select: Non-obscuring selection highlight
-wim
@jdelavaulx As a kind of interim, here’s a script that will un-highlight the selected object - works well for this case - object color.
Unhighlight.py (363 Bytes)
To use the Python script use RunPythonScript, or a macro:
_-RunPythonScript "Full path to py file inside double-quotes"
-Pascal
Thanks Pascal,
I have been using your script for toggle selection highlight which has been useful.

Something like this as a native function in Rhino would be nice. Like type in SelectionHighlight which would toggle the setting.
The cluttered yellow highlighting geometry is problematic with hatches as well as with a set of thousands and thousands of curves. The model might have a huge amount of curves and will rotate and zoom nicely, but once you select the objects, Rhino chokes.
Please enable a native quick way to just disable the selection highlight.
IF possible, a toggle switch to show only the bounding box of the selected objects would be nice.
