Right-click Selection

Right-click Selection

I have 3-year background of using a 3d software called Blender, and I was just wondering if you guys can also bring the option to use right-click select for selecting objects in the viewport... (Yes, I know it's counter-intuitive for many people, but I'm fond of using it...)

And yes, I know that it's weird and strange to post Blender-related things here on a Maya forum...

I absolutely agree, as an animator right click select is one of the things that i appreciated when i worked with Blender & i wish every animator to try & see how powerful & intuitive especially when selecting behind the 3d manipulators......Blender devs just broke some basic functionality for the 3d manipulators and made them unusable for us, i reported it & asked them to bring it back but they told me it's a  feature request huh when it was already implemented.
And as you know the down side of open source is things changes drastically & destroys people's habits, workflows, muscle memory...etc so if something is removed then say good bye to it for years, well at least until some sensible soul brings it back.
So i am hoping that Maya devs see the benefit of right click select, just a single click when trying to select behind the manipulators would be more than enough especially that the marking menus use click drag AFAIK...if this gets added anytime i 'll be happy to jump to Maya without worrying about my selections  and i get to use the most powerful 3d animation software at the same time 😉
