Selecting a loop with alt+click only selects vertical faces as shown in picture. How can the horizontal loops be selected? Are there any settings that could influence loop selection?

Blender 3.4.1 Macintosh 12.6.2 (Monterey) enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ Alt+click a bottom or top edge of a face you will get a vertical loop. Alt+click a right or left edge of a face you will get a horizontal loop. $\endgroup$

⎇ AltLMB LMB takes into account the closest edge you click on to determine the direction of the loop to select. The nearest edge will select a face loop perpendicular to that edge.

Similarly, when selecting edges or vertices, where you click determines the way it selects things.
