In 1.16 setting the parent entity.show=true/false no longer controls the children entities.show=true/false.

In 1.15 this used to work.

Hmm, can you paste a code sample?  
Our Sandcastle example of show/hide with parents seems to still work: [http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=Show%20or%20Hide%20Entities.html&label=Beginner](http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=Show%20or%20Hide%20Entities.html&label=Beginner)

Thanks,

Hannah

My mistake. Disregard.

Thanks, M.
