Scenario: You have take-off item in a subfolder "hidden". You then decide that you want to show all hidden items within a folder structure and select to "unhide" all items in the parent folder. The item that you original had hidden remains hidden even when toggling the parent folder back and forth. For example, I am working through sitework and concrete take-off, hiding and unhiding items as needed to complete the take-off. At the end, I want to show all the site items within the site folder. No matter which parent folder I hide and unhide, the item still remains hidden. If this is by design, then there needs to be an option for "show all hidden items".
Item Hidden - Haybales/Silt Fence
Hide All Items in this folder:
When "Unhide" the folder is selected, the Haybales and Silffence still remains hidden:
Hi Chris. This is by design, but it has been causing confusion for multiple users, so we will likely be updating it to force all child items to match.
Technically behind the scenes it's tracking "hidden" at the folder level separately than all the takeoffs within it. Many graphics apps work this way, but I can see how it can cause confusion. We'll work to make this simpler.
