Working sets can be applied to an object so that it is visible in the Viewer while the Scene Graph is collapsed. If such an object is selected in the Viewer, pressing F while hovering over the Scene Graph will only frame the selected object if the Scene Graph has been expanded previously in the session.
Steps to reproduce
Start Katana and add a PrimitiveCreate node to the Node Graph
Enable Viewer Visibility on the Primitive by ticking the box in the respective column in the Scene Graph
Collapse the Scene Graph, save the file and close Katana.
Reopen Katana and load the file. Do not expand the Scene Graph.
Apply Last File Save under Scene Graph Bookmarks.
Turn on the Viewer Visibility Working Set. The Primitive should now be visible in the viewer even though the Scene Graph is collapsed.
Hover over the Scene Graph and press F to frame the selection. Nothing happens.
Expand and collapse the Scene Graph.
With the Primitive still selected, hover over the Scene Graph again and press F. Now the Primitive’s location is framed in the Scene Graph.
Workaround
RIght-click on the object in the viewer and select “Show in Scene Graph”
Reproduced by support
Reproduced in 2.0v5, 2.1v1, 2.5v1-v3 on RHEL 6.6
2.5v1&3 on Windows 7
Expected behaviour
Pressing F on the Scene Graph should always frame the selected object, if it has been expanded before in the session or not.
Actual behaviour
F only frames the object in the Scene Graph if the graph has been expanded in the same session.
