**Short description of error**
It is sometimes impossible to select an object from most angles if it's intersected with other objects. You have to zoom in really close and enter wireframe mode to do the selection of an object. Sometimes even if a very small portion is covered by a different object it is impossible to do selection.
**Exact steps for others to reproduce the error**
Enter camera view,
Try to select a cube object (named "SelectCube") by clicking in the area I painted with a grease pencil. {F115938}
