Question

When duplicating multi-state object more than once project no longer visible in preview

I have a multistate object with 10 states. I want to duplicate that object 5 times.

When I duplicate it once (i.e. there are two instances of it) the project continues to preview just fine. When I duplicate again so that there are three instances, when I try to preview the project it's just white - there's nothing there.

If I delete the third instance (so that two instances remain) it previews fine. I can swop the different instances in and out of the project - as long there are no more than two (desn't matter which two) it previews fine.

Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?

    Update:

    As an experiment I removed all my mutlistate images. I then created a quick new one with just 4 states. I duplicated this 2 times so I had 3 instances. Previewed absolutely fine.

    I then deleted all the objects except one. I brought the number of states up to ten, then duplcated twice so that I had 3 instances of the 10 state multistate object. Now it doesn't preview.

    So there seems o be an issue related to the number of states your multistate object has...?

    Which version are you using: 9 or 2017? I want to double-check.
