Blender 2.79 behaves the same.

I'm guessing this is working as intended, even though it does seem a bit odd.

Can anyone confirm?

@Sergey Sharybin (sergey) I'm guessing this will not change until the particle rewrite?

@Sebastian Parborg (zeddb), this indeed sounds like an intended behavior. The segments gets tinted down when they are adjacent to the hidden keys. This seems to be missing in 2.80, but is something which shouldn't be hard to bring back i think. This is up to the draw manager department i think.

P.S. There is an assert failure in debug mode when hitting H in 2.8.
