Blender 2.8 Troubleshooting – Object selection problem in Cycles viewport preview

This is a bug I noticed in Blender 2.8. When you’re in Cycles and can not select objects even when the outliner shows the selection icon is enabled, then this could be your solution.

1. Switch back to the Eevee preview mode.

2. Unhide your isolated object by pressing / from the Numpad.

3. Go back to Cycles preview mode. Now you should be able to select your object.
