hello i was watching a maya 2013 tutorial then i came up with this problem: when i select a vertex from Right View the vertex's behind it doesnt get selected so i wanted to ask how to make it like that? i know its a ridiculous question but its bothering for me for not being able to do like that. thx and sry.
It's not a ridiculous question ;) try this in the "MEL" field in the lower left: selectPref -useDepth false; this toggles selection of stuff "behind". The "false" allows selections of vertices or edges in the back.
