Request - "tab target" for selecting objects in 3D mode

The problem - it can be frustrating to select the object you want in 3D mode. Especially true for large objects and decorations that are created from multiple, overlapping objects. In some cases, you cannot select them at all.

The suggestion - add a new selection method to the existing method (move/mouse around until you get the object highlighted and you are in a good location to be able to move it where you want). I suggest "tab target" which we are familiar from standard MMOs. Each time you press Tab, a new object in your field of view becomes locked on for editing. By pressing Tab over and over, you can cycle through the visible objects without moving around.

This request would go great with my other one: http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?368231-Request-toggle-for-moving-objects-in-3D-mode

    Tab targeting is what they are getting away from in this game.

    For working in the Foundry, specifically when selecting objects while editing Foundry maps in 3D mode, not for fighting monsters in the live game.

    I second this. Either that or allow click-targetting in edit mode.

    Having to place the object in the center of the screen is kinda annoying.
