Blocks with off layers showing up in octane render view

Hi Paul, Im up to date on the current stable build, so not sure if you may have already seen this in the test build.

I just noticed an old error seems to have come back. If I have a block instance with multiple objects on different layers, and I turn one layer off, when I render in octane, the off layer objects show up as if the layer is on.

Im not sure if there is anything new I need to do to get around this, but just wanted to point it out. Thanks!

Do you have a sample scene you could send me demonstrating this issue pls? It's not something that has changed for a long time.

Hey Paul,

Here's a file for ya. I realized that the problem is only on blocks within blocks. You can see in the attached file and img.
