New Repeat Feature unhides/unlocks all objects
- OS: Windows 10, Adobe Illustrator V25.1
- I used the Repeat Object tool, mirrored an object, then double-clicked into it to edit it. Once edited, I clicked out of the tool.
- Expect to click out and have other layers/objects unaffected.
- When I click out of the Mirror Repeat tool, all my hidden objects are no longer hidden, and all my locked objects are unlocked. This happens every time I edit a Repeated object.

The objects are not correctly reflected. They are transformed, and some areas are shaded.

I have this same (undesired) behavior in 25.4.1 on MacOS Big Sur 11.4

I have a similar thing. I have a label I have created and then I used the repeat object tool to duplicate it. When I click into one to make visibility changes it shows correctly the change. When I am finished and click out or hit escape all the hidden items are made visible again. I would expect them to stay hidden.
