Hey! If I have a light between me and an object I can't select the object. I know that The Other Renderer only has the selection on the edges of the wireframe for lights if in wireframe mode. Could we have the same thing in Corona?

It is a bit annoying to have to use another viewport to select your objects if there is a wireframed light between the camera and the objects in the scene. Especially if the wireframed light totally obscures the scene and you start to question your own sanity before realising what is "wrong".

Thanks for an awesome renderer.

Corona light > viewport > wireframe
This won't let you select objects through-light, but at least you will see them and Max should let you select the objects which are behind after you click multiple times in the same place. Btw, you can also use selection filter.

Or you can always just freeze the light :) Along with wireframe display mode in light properties, it should make light unobtrusive.
