Description

The current bounding box selection display loses all usefulness once the furthest apart objects are selected.

This is especially noticeable on grid patterns, where nested unselected elements become indistinguishable after selecting all.

This PR implements a highlighting method that visually brightens individually selected objects.

Screenshots/Recordings/Graphs

Current 2.3.1: All but some objects are selected. Can you tell which ones?

Proposed PR: Slight lightening of selected objects

Tests

Built on windows, tested with various colors and non-printable
