CADFEKO: how to "select behind"?

I am relearning from HFSS, and trying to master the UI, which is quite new to me.

In HFSS there were many useful selection shortcuts for changing mode etc. The most useful was "select behind" feature to select objects behind the top object. Like hidden planes behind the top plane, or solids inside the assembly case solid; along the mouse-pointing direction cyclically.

 

Is there such option in CADFEKO? I tried combinations of CTRL, ALT, SHIFT with LMB, and RMB, tried pressing "B". But only the top object is selected, or all the objects in the selection rectangle

    It seems like Feko doesn't have the equivalent function to "Select behind" in HFSS.

    However, if you want to select the behind object(s), you can hide (I mean visibility control) the front object(s) from "Details Tree".

    Thank you ~

    Oh. That is very sad. I was considering it as a basic CAD feature. It should be implemented by any means ASAP. Well, it is like being a tailor without a thimble; you have scissors and a ruller, but your fingers are still in pain from your work.
