Linked components disappear when selecting to combine - cut

Hi everyone!

 

I was just going to start Combine - Cutting several linked bodies from a target. As soon as I selected the body of the linked component to be used as tool, all the other instances (in other words imported copies)  disappeared.

 

I'm quite sure this is a bug.

 

Regards

Peter

Took awhile to figure out what you are seeing, some pictures might have helped. What I came up with is, insert one component then make a pattern to create copies and then I see the problem you describe. I agree I think this is a bug, you can work around it by selecting the bodies in the browser, when select they become visible again.

Thank you Mark!

 

Sorry for not being clear.

 

I feel like an idiot I didn't remember to do that, as I usually select components and or bodies from the browser.

 

I'll test this and give you feedback.

 

Regards

Peter
