Hide lights in LDE

Post by Jon Dieterlen »

Has anyone noticed that when you hide light fixtures, then take the lay out to the LDE, that the lights reappear? This is a new thing since updating. Before updating, if the lights were hidden trhey would not be seen in the LDE as well.

This isn't a big issue, but I was wondering if anyone else has noticed. Or maybe I don't know what I am doing. That wouldn't surprise me!

When you take the entire room to the LDE the lights will not hide. If you take a wall to the LDE the lights will be hidden. I believe it has always been this way.

I have noticed this issue since updating as well. I will hide light fixtures and then take room to LDE and light fixtures will show. It will not allow me to hide or delete them in LDE. My workaround has been to "save as" the file to a new name ( usually filename LDE ) or something like that. I will then delete the lights & any other display object that is not needed and then take the room to LDE.

I never had to do this before updating to 5.2
