Drag select in wire frame view
Can we go back to the days of yore when you could drag select items in wire-frame view and ONLY select those items and NOT the shape behind them?
For instance, I have a few lines of text or shapes over an image or a large flood color within a group. I want to use wire-frame and drag-select those items without selecting the image.
Way back when, and I mean going back to something like Illustrator 6 or 8, this was a thing you could do.
At some point, someone decided that was a silly thing that NO ONE does, apparently and made it so that even in wire-frame, the image or shape is still selected. So now I have to click, drag, select, then go back to full view and shift-deselect the flood/image.
After all these years, I'm used to it, but since I happened to be here I thought I'd mention it.
