I think this is a MAYA issue... but I can't find any info on it. ANY help appreciated. I am animating some objects that are grouped under a node. I want to un-parent them from the group node and whenever I do they WILL NOT show up in the viewport.

Everything shows they are visible and yet in the hyper graph they look hidden.

ANY ideas welcome. Animation due tomorrow and I have tried regrouping within the node. Parenting to a locator etc they will not move independently so I try to ungroup them to re-animated them separately... no go.

Wow this is a first... I have never seen orange text in the attribute editor before????

When an attribute is in orange it probebly has a render layer override. try to right click on it and choose `remove layer overide`. check your render layers also.
hope this helps.

You should work on the master render layer. Then you will see it.

You are both Genius's. NOt sure how that got switched on the render layers... but it is gone now.
MANY Thanks
