Is it possible to change the SELECT function and the select function of the DELETE command ?

At the moment you can draw a frame/box from every direction and only the elements which are fully included in the frame are selected.

I would like to propose to preserve this feature for a frame/box which is drawn from left to right.

New:

If you draw a frame/box from right to left all elements which are partially in the selection frame would be selected.

Like in acad and similar programs.

Maybe with old behavior on/off

 

Advantages:
DELETE command: Faster cleanup of imported drawings. For exemple hatch transformed to lines
SELECT function: New opportunities for the queries with INQ_SELECTED_ELEM
