System Information
Operating system: Microsoft Windows 11 Home v 10.0.22621 Build 22621 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU version 31.0.15.3598

Blender Version
Broken: 3.6.0, hash: c7fc78b81e, 2023-06-27 08:08, branch: blender-v3.6-release
Worked: 2.93.18, master branch, 2023-05-22 12:04, hash: cb886aba06

Short description of error
When I enter edit mode on any given mesh, I'm unable to select vertices faces or edges unless I am in wireframe mode/view from top angle. I'm testing it with all three context for edges, faces or vertices, and all the selection arrow tools, but nothing works. Eevee, lookdev, and workbench all behave the same.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible).

Take 2 planes with different subdivisions, place them on top of each other with some spacing in between. unable to select the top plane's vertices from a 45 degree angle (or any angle except an acute or top angle) and the bottom plane vertices/edges/faces are selectable but not the top.
Mesh normals are facing up. for both planes. Video attached.

Just updated to this blender. Previous blender version does not have this problem.

Not able to reproduce this behavior in 3.6.1

Here are some basic steps:

3.6.1 is the latest release, try that one also
not able to make out what nvidia driver version you are using, latest for your GPU is 536.67
uncheck all addons, could be an interfering addon
upload your system-info file from Help > Save System Info to help the troubleshooters
also a copy of your blender file with the errant behavior may help

P.S.

I don' t see the wireframe mode being selected in the video, as you mentioned it in your post

...unless I am in wireframe mode/view from top angle...

GPU driver version is 535.98
updated to 3.6.1 - this seems to have solved the problem. I am able to now select the mesh in edit mode without wireframe/xray.

If you need the .blend file, I can still provide it. But the update seems to have fixed the issue!

Will close then. Guess the issue was due to the new retopology overlay feature.
