Blender 2.8 Modeling Excavator : Syringe Connections

In this part of the Blender 2.8 excavator modeling series I show how to create connections for the syringes that will used used for for the printed model to control the different parts.

I also added playlist now for the series:

I always wonder, how i could setup Blender that i can alwas select with a border without hitting always the "B" button. In 2.8 first i believed its implemented, but when i switch to the move/rotat/scal gizmo, the boxselection is gone. The next thing, that Blender automatically select all verticies/faces/edges behind, without goin extra in wireframe or this strange transparent mode. I mean basically the selection mode like Maya, 3ds Max, Modo and Cinema 4d. Blender is in so much things so much faster than the other apps, but in this case i always must hit a few button more and when you compute that together, at the end of the day, there comes a lot of klicks together. I tried to change it, but i don´t get it to run. So if anybody has an advise for me to set this up, please let me know.
