A Blender add-on that introduces new box, circle, and lasso selection tools with enhanced features. These tools can automatically toggle X-Ray shading, enable selection through with or without X-Ray, select objects either fully enclosed or overlapping the selection area, and dynamically adjust selection behavior based on the drag direction.
The tools can be accessed via the Blender toolbar or through keyboard shortcuts.

This extension does not require special permissions.
Having to go in and out of xray or wireframe to select hidden things, with no alternative in vanilla blender is madness!
Until that option exists, this addon is an absolute must have!
