    How to reproduce:


    Repro steps:
    1) Create new project/scene
    2) Add a few game objects.
    3) Add one of those gameobjects to your asset folder so it has now become a prefab.
    4) Try to reorder the prefab gameobject in the hierarchy, it will lose its order on editor Play or on reopening your project.

    Bug still occurs in Unity 5.3.1, has been happening since Unity 5.x.

    This should not have been closed in the issue tracker as it seems like the same bug.

    It looks like the fixed in number is incorrect. It was only fixed last week so its unlikely that it made it into 5.3.1. Did you see that it was fixed in the release notes or from the issue tracker? I think it may be in a future 5.3.1 patch release.

    Looks like it went into 5.4 last month. I will add it to the backport queue. Should be in next weeks patch providing there are no problems with it going into 5.3(incompatibility etc).

    Edit: I just realised I already tried to backport this fix last week. It caused some of our test to go red and I was not able to identify why. I'll take another look at it and see if i can figure out whats going wrong.

    Thanks for the update. I hope for the best but if we have to wait on 5.4 that is life. Our scene is starting to get big. I wish we had some sort of Folder System to keep scenes more organized :)

    Thanks again,
    Kane

    Hi,

    is this bug fixed in 5.3.5?

    I'm with 5.3.4 and I'm experiencing the bug in my UI where the hierarchy order also determines the draw order, so you can see it's quite a serious problem for me...

    Thank you
    Luke

    I'm using Unity Version 5.4.0f3 Personal, and I am experiencing the bug as well.
    Is this still being worked on, or does Unity think the issue is resolved?

    Could you file a bug report please. The original bug was fixed in 5.4, so if you still have issues then its something that needs a new bug report.
