Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows-8.1-6.3.9600-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce GT 750M/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 417.22

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.82 (sub 7), branch: master, commit date: 2020-03-12 05:06, hash: rB375c7dc4caf4
Worked: (optional)

the position of the two empties in the collection influences the color of the ball (parent), therefore if the ball moves, the empties also move, and the color of the ball remains unchanged.
This doesn't work if collection is linked.
Works if collection is appended.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error


  1. Download both files
  2. Open Pallone calcio.scene.2.blend
  3. Rotate linked collection
  4. Compare this to rotating objects in file Pallone calcio.1.blend

@Andrew Woods (cga558b) Can you explain how did you created Pallone calcio.scene.2.blend file?

I have created new.blend file, click on File > Append, chose Pallone calcio.1.blend file and Pallone collection and it worked.

if I append the collection "pallone" from "Pallone calcio.1.blend" file, it works for me too;
the error happens only when I link the collection

This has been reported before, see T56534: Linked group breaks Object Mapping in Texture Coordinates, will merge these reports.

I don't think this task is a duplicate of T56534, that task is about "texture coordinate" node, instead of "position" node. And also thas issue occurs both in linked and appended groups. While this occurs only for linked collections

This is a duplicate of T56534.

that task is about "texture coordinate" node, instead of "position" node

Pallone calcio.1.blend uses Texture Coordinate nodes to achieve the effect.

And also thas issue occurs both in linked and appended groups. While this occurs only for linked collections

T56534 is not about appended groups, it is about linked groups and (local) group instances. That is the same for Pallone calcio.1.blend (if you make a collection instance in that file - without linking - that also fails)
