In version 1.7, go to Preferences > Options > General tab (opened by default). Then, click the yellow color in front of Selection color and change the alpha canal value.

My Qgis version is in French, sorry if the translation is not exactly correct.

Change it to which value? – vascobnunes Jul 8 '11 at 15:36
vascobnunes > it is set to 255 ... try 20 or 0 to make it fully transparent – simo Jul 8 '11 at 17:05

Alpha channel doesn't seem to affect it in the latest build. Might be a bug, will chase it up. – Nathan W Jul 10 '11 at 22:24
