Short description of error
Instanced hair invisible for EEVEE and workbench.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Original file is the following. A basic plane with hair, that is grouped and instanced multiple times:
The hair only shows/work for Cycles. For EEVEE and workbench it only shows the hair for the original object.
Actually the hair is there but they are all in the same position as the original one.
A variation of this issue can be found here:
Where we instance the hair in a new scene, but the hair position is the same as the original scene, even though the duplicator moved.
So here is the problem:
Hair simulation is done in world space. We need dupli_parent->obmat to correctly render dupligroups with hair.
But currently depsgraph abstract that from us, so we first need a way to access the duplicator properties and then we can make it work.
And given the current state of things I doubt it's on @Sergey Sharybin (sergey) quick todo list.
