SME - hot or cool indicators disappears

Hi, in 2024.0 the indicators that show if a material or map is hot (in use) or cool (not assigned to anything) disappears sometimes when I re-open a scene. Not one single hot indicator is showing. It looks like all materials in the view are cool, but they are not...

I can get them back by creating a new view and clicking 'material/Get all Scene Materials'. That fixes all views.

Hi,

 

While not specificially stating in the bug-fixes that it does, 2024.1 might resolve this problem:

Might be worth your while applying the service pack to see if it helps.

Btw, this is a know bug with 2024 and has been flagged for fixing at some stage:
