Picking up items that are obscured by static objects

[TychoTheItinerant]

I was in the Den and I dropped an item on a hex that was partly obscured by a stop sign. The item was completely obscured by the sign and the stupid sign would not allow for a transparency bubble. This was rather vexing. I can't highlight the item to pick it up. Is there ANY way to pick up an item that you know is at your feet but cannot be seen due to being hidden by static decorations?

 

[Per]

If it's a weapon you can sometimes get an NPC to pick it up in combat.

Perhaps you can change a flag in the scenery file.

Or use the inventory editor to change something else into a copy of what you lost.
