Right - good thought and that's better than nothing. But now my usual workflow is restored after setting that environment variable.

*Subject:* RE: selecting nulls inside of geometry when xray is on

You need to set a variable in the bat file.
They disabled this to optimize the viewport responsiveness.
A UI workaround: If you hold don’t CTRL while clicking, or SHIFT, or ALT, I think this alternates the selections under mouse. I don’t recall.

Here is the variable:

*File Location*
C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Softimage 2015\Application\bin\setenv.bat

*Append: *

:Fix selection block

set XSI_DISABLE_NEW_PICK=1

-Draise

Make the outer object unselectable?
Is that enough for what you want?
Cheers
