App::DocumentObjectGroup visibility changes touched state

Post by mlampert »

For a while now the Model group of a Path.Job objects needs a recompute and it seems to be related to changing the Visibility flag of itself or of any of its contained objects.

Personally I would call it a bug but with all the behavioural changes lately I'm not sure anymore. Is this by design or a bug?

For a PartDesign Body a similar problem once has been reported. The fix for it can be found here: git commit 35c5e5a8a96c

That fixes it for the standard case - thanks a lot.
There's still something funny going on with Path. If I change the visibility of "Model" it still touches the Group. I thought we create a regular Group but there seems to be more to it.

This sounds to be related to http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.p ... 9&start=20
A fIx should be on the way already.
