Mask selection
When I go to select verts and drag across an area it selects objects in background as well.
I have reset preferences, but still acting the same?
Thanks

While your here, are you any good at modelling.
Im having difficulty with two areas of my model, getting smooth geometry.
In each case Im trying to smooth a particular area without getting crease along the rest of the model.
The second one Im trying to create a cut in. But again, adding edges affects the whole thing.

And below I have a smoothed cube, I have tried using the split polygon inside the extruded areas but I still get noise on the surface.

Just wasn't sure if this was the correct way to go about it.
