i have a wall and then a slab over the wall.

on my first ground plan, i simply want to select the wall, but i cant because the mouse keeps picking the slab above.
i guess there is a easy tip to select objects lower down ?


any help would be great.
thanks.

Use the "tab" key.

You can also make the active tool match what you are trying to select and use the quick select method to make your selection. In this case, make the wall too active and select the wall.

In my work environment, I keep the quick select method off and use the keyboard (shift + space bar) to temporarily turn it on, then click on the desired element.
