Selecting overlapping geometry constraints

See attached screenshot. Both the circle and rectangle have been patterned using the Circular Pattern constraint, and both share the sketch origin as the center point. However, if I want to edit the pattern afterwards, I cannot (easily) select which circular pattern constraint to edit - which one is highlighted seems to depend on minute mouse movements. Is there any way of doing this reliably, e.g. is there a "Select Other" command like in Solidworks?

Right-click and hold the mouse button for a second or so.

The little window that pops up will show you to select the one you need.

Thanks for the speedy reply! That technique works great - I found I had to hold my left mouse button instead to show the depth menu, maybe it's the way I've got the interface set up?

 

You've saved the day 😉
