Title: Layers and groups don't cooperate
Post by: davdud101 on February 08, 2017, 03:07:52 pm

Sorry for all the recent topics! Forum's been really quiet in the late, though.

I'm continuing on my CAD project, but it seems that an object that is a gruop nof lesser objects DOESN'T show up if it's layer is activated alone. It only shows if lower layers are visible/activated.
For example, if I have a group on layer 2, the group WON'T show unless layer 0 is on.
Not sure if that's an intended function or an error. ::)

i seem to remember there was some unintended functionality (/bug?) where, if a group was assigned to one layer but its member elements were assigned to another, then both layers had to be activated to make the elements visible.  there's a thread about it somewhere in the depths of the forum iirc.  in your case, it sounds like the group is on 2 but the member elements are still on 0; might be worth ungrouping the group and checking which layer the elements are on.
