Problem description

Objects on global layer are invisible on another layout. I can still select them and see hierarchy connections:

Attach a .c3p

Can you provide a minimal project as per the bug report guidelines? Demonoire is a large and complex project, and it is often infeasible to debug issues in such projects, or rule out that it is not a mistake or misinterpretation of how the project is supposed to work.

dop2000 commented 2 years ago

As I explained in the original ticket, this doesn't happen in new projects, therefore I can't make a minimal project. I have several large games where I can see this bug, they are all bigger than Demonoire. I removed all sounds, most objects, layouts etc. from this template, it's now less than 300KB: https://www.dropbox.com/s/43961hck03p0jqq/Demonoire.c3p?dl=0

@AshleyScirra
I think I found what's causing this bug and how to reproduce it - need to add any effect to any object. The object doesn't even need to be on the layout, but if it has any effect, global layers become invisible. Here is a new demo: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yuffzhkfwu9ndk2/GlobalLayerBug.c3p?dl=0

Layer L1 is invisible on other layouts, unless you remove Darken effect from Sprite3 and reload the project.

Could you please fix this soon, as this bug makes the job of editing layouts pretty difficult.

szabeszg commented 2 years ago

It looks like "only"(?) effects involving modifying colors results in this bug but those that only distort the object are "safe to use". Well, at least adding Sphere, Swirl and RadialBlur is OK.

I agree, this is definatelly a nasty bug.

Thanks for the minimal repro. This allowed me to fix it for the next beta.
