Panel Member Controls for Hide in Play Mode Not Hidden

Question

On the latest MD Next build I'm having an issue that I've had for a few builds - hidden panels are not hidden on first startup until I go into "Design" mode and then back out, then they are properly hidden.

You should already have my layout where I'm experiencing the issue, surprised you didn't notice.  Check out Bank 1 Page 5, the buttons on the lower middle left that are overlapping are only supposed to appear with the dial above them.

I'm not 100% following, but I made this.  Under 3 minutes long:

oh! okay I see it, thanks, sorry for the slow uptake on my part.

Okay I forgot about this bug. Basically hide-in-play-mode isn't applying to controls ON panels until design mode entry exit.

So you have a workaround, of course, which is just to set the panel controls to "hide in play mode" which is far less convenient. I'll see if I can fix, thanks.

Oh, okay...well, that's weird, I feel a little silly for not thinking of that.

Yes, those five controls were on that panel and the panel was set to "hide in play mode" and this was happening.  When I set all of the individual controls on that panel to "hide in play mode" the behavior is the way I want it to be (they are hidden from startup).  So it's a better workaround than going into Design mode, though it's still a bug...

We've got a fix in place for this already, but it won't be coming to the Beta until 2.175 is ready. Hope you can sit tight, THANKS for reporting, it's a great find, actually. And happy new year!
