Anyone have this bug?
Someone know how to acoid this?
Duplicating Combined Objects results in disappearing object after reopening the scene.
All the add-ins disabled....
1. open the scene and group some objects
2. duplicate grouped objects, saveas, close and reopen the scene end everything is OK
3. reopen the sample image to start with the original scene. group the objects and then combine the group.
4. duplicate combined object.
5. saveas, close and reopen the scene. the duplicate object are disappeared.
Attached a small scene to test.
Thanks
Bye

Hi Christian,
you are totally right.
Using the Combine tool you can incur in some limitations with some Showcase features (alternatives, duplications, behaviors, etc)
It's substantially a problem with recreation and management of the combined tasselled geometry, what you have to do just previously consider if you are in the final stage of your scene; quoting from the Help "combining should be done only if you are sure that nothing else is going to change in the geometry".
So...no clean solutions, just to turn around the issue you could duplicate as many times you need, then, finally, you could group and combine each of the groups.
Not sure if it will actually helps you..
Have a nice day!

... TO BE OR NOT TO BE ...
Sometimes, it is better to combine objects before to apply materials. This especially if model came from inventor. For example, a bolt from inventor (with only 1 mayterial end the texture for the Thread) sometimes is converted in too many subobjects.
So, before to apply the correct material in showcase, i combine the bolt (supposing not to wont to keep the thread....), so i have to do only one click to select the bolt and apply the material, instead to do a right mous button, select the father object ...
This is a better situation to manage, easiest and lighter...
But if i duplicate this bolt the bolt disappear!!!!
so...
To work in well-ordered metod (but without duplicate objects) or leave the objects as they are (but duplicating objects) ?????
Sometimes i create a master scene, combine objects, apply materials, export to fbx....
And then import the fbx. So i can duplicate it....
But is a poor workaround....
Hope autodesk can correct this bug....
Thanks an Bye everyone.
