@Peter: what do you mean by 'Simple Select?'

Basically, when you aren't clicking on a manipulator I like the Maya-style
of being able to select other objects. The equivalent in Soft is setting
Preferences>Tools>Transform>Click Outside Manipulator to 'Select Tool'.

I suspect that it's just the way Modo works though (like that weird 'Rick
Click to Lasso' style of selection) and I'll have to get used to should I
ever start using it properly.
