Show/Hide multiple Layers resets the visibility of objects

Hi,

i have this issue since the new layer explorer was introduced.

Create two layers.

Create some objects on each layer.

Hide one or more nodes in each layer.

Select the first layer and add the second layer to the selection with Ctrl pressed.

Hide both layers with the eye.

Show both layers with the eyes.

-> now all objects got visible

If you do this with nested layers you will unhide all objects in child layers as well.

Also you will unhide all hidden childlayers.

I think this must be a bug. If you don't watch out you can mess up your scene.

best regards
Simon

You may want to open a ticket, include the version of 3dsmax you are using, and see if technical support has some suggestions for it. If not, they will log it as a bug as part of the process.

Best Regards,

I tried to find the simple bug report site, but they have changed it so i thought it should be placed here.
I will look for it again, thanks.
