@Fempirestate87 column fade behavior appears to have been normalized across all columns in the 6/19/18 patch.  Can you please confirm this in your game as well?  Thanks!

@Fempirestate87 I also see this issue in my (non-modded) game.  The specific columns that do not fade (or don't fade until the camera is right on top of them) are:

• Experienced Pillar
• Little Pillar
• Load-bearing Pillar
• Op-ed Column
• Holder Upper Pillar
• Pillar Q
• Fossil Pillar
• Illuminating Pillar
• Fingerling Pillar
• Upstanding: A Column of Concern

I will add the issue to our list.

Yes! Columns are fading once more!

Hi! I have this issue too, and can't recall what I've had it before. All my columns show in live mode, which is annoying cause I love to build with them. 

No mods. I have all packs installed.

@CAROLINA747 the columns are supposed to show up in live but fade as the camera nears them.  I've retested the columns, and they all still seem fine, except for the new column from Seasons, the Stand Tall Column.  As this thread was already closed, I will report the issue with the new column in a new bug report and will link it here.
