Can't select object in scene view
I can't select objects by clicking on them in the scene view. I can still select them via hierarchy, but when selected they appear wireframed by a solid white line, and so are all other gizmos, like spot light cones, etc. Even the grid is turned to a solid white line. If I quit and re-open Unity, I can select objects but they are sill covered with the weird white wireframe. Anybody experienced this, or even figured a way out?
this is obviously an old post. But I've hit a similar problem. I have a scene where I can't select anything in the view but hierarchy works. I've opened other projects and I can select stuff. I created new scenes where I can't. I've restarted unity and the machine... it still won't let me select.
I'm having this problem again as well. I had it before when I broke some connection between objects. Now my coworker has done it again. I knew to undo my own work last time, but now I'm not sure where to look.
This "rare" bug must not have been fixed for Unity 5 because I have the same exact problem. Dunno what caused it, either

Seen this bug in Unity 5.1.3. Had to close the Scene view and then go to Window > Scene and open a new one.
