Odd dForce visibility issue

Posts: 7,500
Perhaps this is unique to me but I have an annoying problem with dForce. I usually select everything in a scene that I don't want to influence a dFroce drape by turning off "Visible in Simulation" (I wish that was off by default because going through that exercise for every scene is a PITA). Anyhow, I have noticed that occasionally I want to re-enable a prop to interact with a drape so I toggle "Visible in Simulation" back on again. Only to find that the cloth drops straight through the prop. No matter what I do I can't make it visible to dForce. The only option is to delete the prop completely and re-load it again. Now it will interact with the cloth simulation.

Just doing that within a scene, in a single session? I just tried with a plane and a cube in the General Release and couldn't reproduce the issue setting the cube's visibility to simulation on and off.
It happens for me in various scenes and multiple sessions. The props are usually furniture which I normally switch off for simulation but sometimes I need to re-enable so that the chair will collide with a dress. It has happened too many times to be a freak occurance - I delete the chair and reload it and it can now be visible to dForce. I should add that I'm still on 4.15 so it might have been fixed by now.
Yeah, it happens with both props and dForce enabled cloth. I have a Duvet in a reloaded scene with a wooden bed frame and have had to delete and reload both in order to get them to be dForce enabled. I don't know how things like this can happen when I have not updated DAZ Studio for a year or more and it used to work fine.
