goups in paint in c4: Bug?

#1

Hi!
Is it just my seat or are groups in the Paint-Layer in Combustion one whole bug?
When I got two paint-strokes, group them and set some keyframes on the opacity of this group, I get totally weired results. sometime, my strokes inside the group get keys on their opacity themselve, then, when I delete the keys from the group sometimes they stay with the strokes…
Is it just me or is everyone else experiencing this?
This makes groups worthless for me!
Anyone knows workarounds?

Yes groups in paint can be buggy.

Try deleting your paint.ini file and see if that helps.

Hmmm,

I can’t find a paint.ini-file, but I found a workaround:
As transparency seems to be the only thing that is buggy I fake Transparancy with scaling to zero. This is a bit more complicated, but it seems to work.
