Steps to Reproduce:
Hover over a block in 1.7.1

It gets thicker the further away you are too. It's weird though because Paulsoaresjr was in 1.7.1 and he seemed to have the old selection box.

I for one hope this gets fixed, it looks quite weird considering how it's been for the past 3 years. I hope it is a bug, and not intentional!

Personally I like it, you can actually see it at higher resolutions now... now if there was just a way to change the thickness and color. 🙂

I personally find it distracting, and considering the water/ice clipping issues, it's likely a bug. Perhaps they can add a setting (maybe even just a hidden one, like the item name hotbar display option) if they decide to keep or remove it.

Yeah this is pretty annoying especially when you play on a small window and point on blocks that are further away. But on fullscreen it looks actually nice. Like Talven81 said, a customizer in the options maybe a good solution 🙂

I think it has been solved in 1.7.2

Confirmed fixed in 1.7.2.
