Some file structure strangeness. Help?

Anonymous

I have some issues with the object structure of a project. 

Some kind of "folders" have appeard and I cannot delete them (Grip, Leduri). I think they are radial pattern folders that I renamed, and then somehow they renamed back leaving a copy of an empty folder with the intended name. Anyway, I cannot delete them.

 

In the screenshot below, "Button (4)" is also such a folder, that I tried to repurpose as a faux-group, but I cannot move any of it's contents outside of it.

What do I do? 🙂

The reason you cannot delete group folders like this is because they belong to the parametric history. If you roll the timeline to before you moved the bodies out of these folders you will find the bodies are in the folders, exactly as the rollback should provide.

 

We are aware that this is disconcerting to some users and are seeking a solution to hide the folder when it's empty. I'll add your post to the case.

 

Thanks,
