Changelog
4.5.1
Fixed detection of backfacing mesh elements on rotated objects.
4.5.0
Added an option for ignoring backfacing elements when selecting through. It’s called “Select Backfacing” and can be found in the add-on preferences and 3D View header. It’s enabled by default. Disabling this option will exclude vertices, edges, and faces with normals pointing away from you from selection.
Added a shortcut to toggle state of “Select Backfacing” to add-on preferences.
Minor bugfixes.
