I just updated iClone to 8.7.5009.1. I found it has unusual behavior with Scene Manager…
In Scene manger, when an object has attached parts…
When you hide an attached part, it disappears in the viewport (Preview Screen), correct! BUT
when you look the scene manager, you will find it no longer showing the hidden part and its vicinity. That is different from before!
In earlier version, when you hide a part, the view of the scene manager will not change and only the selected part’s show/hide icon on the RHS changes. Now the view of the Scene will move to somewhere and user has to find it back to examine or to continue to work on other parts of the parent asset (That is in nearby. The present behavior is very inconvenient!
Scene Manager problems were discussed in another thread: Annoying action(s) in Scene list
RL has acknowledged that the behavior is different.
