It would be great if you can fix it. It has been around for ages. I thought it was a limitation of instances, that they took their visibility properties from their 'parent'.

it'd be great if the "Master Hidden" would also be taken into account when exporting to Maxwell.

One big problem with the missing hiding of instances is, that when i have a portfolio of objects and use instances of them for different layout-versions, that i can't just switch on and off a layout-version.

I always need to either make an own copy of my portfolio content for every layout-version, or delete unused versions from the scene. That's really tedious after a while and makes you lose the benefit of layers switching in SI.

It'd be so much easier to work with maxwell in SI, when this hiding-of-instances feature would be fixed.

Is there something in the making to fix it ?

Regards,
Frank
