Can't select object in scene view

Question

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?

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.

There are 4 buttons on the top of Unity: [hand,arrows,circle-arrows,ray-arrows]

Select the arrows alt text
