Select Visible?

[Jim]

Is there a plugin to select only geometry that can be seen on the screen?

Edit: Including the backfaces. Maybe select visible is a bad description. How about select all within the field of view?

I have written a SelectVisible class but it is a .rbs file (cannot attach here) and available only for private use.

if you want some tips I am available via email or PM.

Cant you just use select and drag across the whole window? That does the same thing.

Yes, but wanted to do it using Ruby.
