Describe the bug

Selecting decals within the toolkit is not possible. Decals covering the full surface of a base layer also prevent one from selecting the base layer. This might be a duplicate of: https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/rtx-remix/issues/400

To be able to select decals in the toolkit, I have to take a capture with the following setting turned off (runtime): Rendering -> Pathtracer -> Resolver -> Decal Material Blending (this will introduce some visual bugs like discolored decals).

How do you reproduce the bug?

1. Games affected: Call of Duty games and possibly GMod?
2. Take a capture with decal blending on and try to select a decal in the toolkit
3. Take a capture with decal blending off ...

What is the expected behavior?

I should be able to select decals without having to turn off that option before taking a capture.

Feature request - given that decal selection works:

Having a single or multiple decals on top of each other can make it hard to select what you want. A right click context menu that lists all textures under the cursor (within reall small distance of the click) would be pretty handy. The map editor for cod4 actually has such a feature:

This could very possibly be solved with my idea over here: https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/rtx-remix/issues/477

Just add decals as a filtering option to this selector, and any other meshes would be ignored.

Keep up the good stuff xoxor4d!

This is a pretty significant issue that really should be addressed sooner rather than later
