Hello.
So I have a sub-asset called [some_sub_asset] which is a part of [main_asset]. I set the hideflag for [some_sub_asset] as "HideInHierarchy", so it looks nicer in the hierarchy window (so it shows only the main asset, instead of having a whole list of subassets under the main asset).
But when I run the following code when the hideflag of [some_sub_asset] is "HideInHierarchy", Unity throws an error saying the sub-asset already exists in the main asset.
if (AssetDatabase.IsSubAsset(some_sub_asset) == false)
AssetDatabase.AddObjectToAsset(some_sub_asset, main_asset);
It seems as if *IsSubAsset(some_sub_asset)* fails if the subassets hideflag is set as "HideInHierarchy". When I set the hideflag as "None" it works as intended as *IsSubAsset(some_sub_asset)* returns true.
Since I simply wanted to change the hideflag for aesthetic purposes, I can just turn the hidelfag off and work around it but I was just wondering if anybody knew why Unity would behave this way.
Thank you!
