Improve Handling of Parent-Child Relationships#457
Merged
Conversation
The code was treating the nonfatal error raised at the end of the export process like any other exception and printing an aborted/failure indicated message, along with the errors. In reality, these are already printed out, so don't do anything special with these.
If the parent object is disabled or the page the parent object is in is disabled, then we should probably not export that child object at all. We have reports of child objects not being in the same page as parent objects causing issues, so we'll also surface that as a more concerning non-fatal error that actually pops up at the end of the export process.
This really only detects the case of the parent object being explicitly turned off. That's the big one, to be honest.
Sometimes, we really want to know "is this object going to be exported?". The Plasma Object "enabled" really just means "the user wants this to export", and the "is_tree_enabled" means "it looks like this object can export".

This PR improves the parent/child object process by showing a noisy warning at the end of the export if an object is parented to an object in another page. Also, for safety, if a parent object is disabled either explicitly or by being in a disabled page, that child object is implicitly disabled, and a warning is printed to the log.
These mitigations should fix #453.
