I’ve been working on a model and have created around 80 scenes. In most of those scenes, I’ve had just a single group visible for detailing in Layout. However, today something strange has happened — every group in the model is now visible in every scene, and I’ve no idea how it’s occurred. Has an…

Having just started to correct each of the scenes one by one - I can see there is just one group (which has multiple sub groups) which appears on every scene. I wonder if there is a command I could have accidentally instructed which makes a particular group visible in every scene.

Not sure it was the same issue you are facing - but groups sort of act like components until you open them for editing, mirror, etc. - meaning I think their internal ID remains the same until something affects them. The best I can explain it - I had an issue where I had a group that was copied on t…

I think you might be right. My usual workflow, if I need to add a group late in a project, is to hide it in all scenes first, and only then add it to the group it belongs to. In this case, I created an additional piece of glass and added it to the glass group before hiding it across the scenes. I’…
