Load a board with objects that are on the "Solder" side (a couple of surface-mount components in my case), turn off the "Far Side" layer and all other layers as well, but turn "Pins/Pads" on for reference, then do a rectangle select over an area that includes some of those back-side pads as well as various through-hole pins. Turn the "Far Side" layer back on and sure enough, those back-side pads got selected, even though that layer was turned off at that moment. -- "There are some things in life worth obsessing over.
