PCBview: Silkscreen masks connector pads #2836

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Select the core bin, choose the resistor and place it on the breadboard. 
Modify the package into 0805 [SMD] and enter the new Part Editor.

2. Select the PCB-tab. Lets assume you want to change the orientation in 
connector pins. So press 'Select graphic', one of the pads is highlighted. If 
you try to point the other pad in the PCB-view the silkscreen is highlighted 
and you cannot select the other pad.

3. In the standard THT-version this 'bug' does not occur. I have the same 
problem with parts I designed with Inkscape and wanted to understand what makes 
the silkscreen mask the underlying graphics. To my surprise this behavior can 
be seen in the SMD-package too.

Attach your sketch file and/or custom part files to the bug report.
(not essential, because it is a core part)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to be able to swap the connector pads (Pin 0 to the right and Pin 1 to 
the left)

What version of Fritzing are you using? On what operating system?
Version 0.8.5 (b8b2c 2013-12-16) [Qt 4.8.5] on a 64-bit Windows 7 PC.

Use the shift-key plus the mouse wheel to navigate to graphic items that are 
underneath other graphic items. Please read Parts Editor Help under the Help 
Menu.
