Hovering over models with move/scale/rotate doesn't show a selection box on them

Hello. When hovering over parts with move/scale/rotate tool, a selection box appears on a part. However, this does not affect models. They still show selection boxes when hovered over with “select” tool. It’s not even selecting, my english isn’t that good and I don’t know how is it called.

I think that normally selection boxes should appear on models when hovered over with move/scale/rotate. This happens 100% of the time. This only affects studio.

I’ve noticed this only a few weeks ago, as I mainly used select when dragging everything. Here is a demonstration:

I don’t think that my technical species would be helpful here.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium build 7601 with SP1.

Funny.
I always knew about this, and it never really bothered me. In fact, I often switched to Move tool, just so my hovering mouse wouldn’t trigger Model selection boxes to appear.

While I do agree that it’s rather unintuitive for the selection boxes to appear only when using the Select tool, I kinda don’t like the idea of it being fixed, as it would no longer allow me to do what I described above.
Unless we would be able to disable the Select tool altogether (as right now it’s impossible to be turned off if no other tools are in use). Then I would have no issues with this bug being fixed.

A month has passed but nothing changed. This is still an issue that is confusing me.

This will be fixed in the dragger rework that we’re doing right now (All of the draggers will have identical hover / selection behavior), but you may have to wait a couple more months for that unfortunately.
