    Is someone to find a workaround? Re-enabled a keyword doesn't work for me...

    I had the same issues with normal maps. I needed to put a placeholder texture in the material normal map slot. I usually set the proper normal map at runtime by setting _BumpMap property.

    Without the placeholder texture, the normal map was not enabled until I clicked on the material.

    This is still occuring in 2018.2.5. I can change _EmissionColor via script and the values update, but the change doesn't appear on screen till I expand the material component of the object in question

    Is there any update to this? I'm switching between shaders in the editor, and the material's shader keywords are the same regardless of the shader. Setting the material's shader back to the original results in my object disappearing until I expand the inspector. Enabling all keywords makes no difference.

    You are correct DBURBDEN1. We are going to better document this.
