Visibility and color lost on all bodies

Post by bobH2 »

Hey!
I finally figured out how this happens.
When you use a text document and make changes to both a body and the text, then close FreeCAD and save the model and the text document, color and visibility is lost.

Click "Close".

If you follow these steps, visibility and colour information is lost on all bodies, including imported ones.

If you click Save All before closing, it will usually save the text and the colour info, but there is still some sort of order of changing text and model info that can mess up that I have not figured out yet.

Both on 0.20 and 0.21.
