Pre-highlight?

Hi Danny, so I just tried this, and it kind of just pushes some odd behavior to when you actually do the click to select things.

When you click to actually select the object, the wireframe does not show the selection, for the same kind of reasons that it did not show the pre-selection highlight (since it is currently designed to show it by colorizing faces).

Then I think if I try to do a similar thing and make edges show as selected when a "wireframe" solid is selected, then that pushes some problems on to the edge selection drill down stage since then there will be a bunch of edges that are displaying as selected when they really are not selected (as edges).


It should be possible to get this all working in a cohesive manner, but it will involve making a plan for the whole selection system, including what happens when you click, and how sub-object drill in works in this different state. So it's a lot more involved than just changing the pre-selection highlight stuff.

I can probably take a stab at making this work better in v3.
