Spacer Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Hi, I am on FZ 8.5.7, and cannnot understand why the Objects Palette works the way it does. I lose a lot of time going back and forth between "Unlock groups" and locking them for quicker selection through the Objects Palette. Why? Because unless I toogle open a group and make invisible one object in it with Groups Locked, there is no way of knowing if all the objects in that group are invisible why? because the "Eye" IconatGroup level isn't- apparently sensitive to what's goinon in it's own group! It stays showing visible even though the objects in it are not!.. I am pretty sure this was brought up long ago. Have I missed something? Thanks- Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Spacer, When groups are locked the Visibility icon next to the group will either show Visible, Not Visible, or Ghosted and all the objects within this group will adhere to the same visibility. If groups are unlocked one some of the objects in one group are visible, some are not visible, and some are ghosted... there is currently not a way for the visibility icon to portray this "mixed" visibility within a group. We will see if this can be added in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Montoya Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I prefer to simply use Layers instead of Objects. Keeping in a good habit of organizing your work into layers as you build will save many hours of headaches in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
