Howdy,

wonder how to make unselectable but solid templates as any solid display seems to block selecting points behind them for the topobuild node. So far only solution found to put my additional geo to a separate obj node, turn on ghost other objects and set ghosting to solid.

Any other ideas how i can set this up with inside one node?

Cheers,
Mark

Simply click on eye icon (shown in the image) while in selection mode.
In this case any selection happens only on visible area not behind.

You can control how template and other types of geometry are drawn in the viewport display options (hit ‘d’ in the viewport).

Thanks guys the effort, but with topobuild node, its not a selection type rather than a handle of the node and no eye icon for that.

Also its cool can change template display settings, but my problem is i want to visually be solid in viewport , but not shadowing out selection with topobuild. At moment if i set to solid it shadows selection and i set ghosting its good but viewport looks very chaotic.
