Describe the bug

I entered a search variable in a layer, but set the visibility off. When I opened the Mission, the first search layer automatically turned on. It was a large layer and it slowed down loading the map.

What did you expect?

I expected the search to not load the layer automatically, but wait until the search was done, THEN load the layer and zoom/pan to the feature.

Reproducible steps
1. Make a layer with a search variable, but make layer visibility off.
2. Open the Mission containing the layer.
Environment
- Version of this software: 2.11
- Operating System: Windows 11

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by creating a layer with a search variable, disabling its visibility, and opening the Mission on Windows 11. Trace the first search layer's visibility and loading behavior, then verify that it remains off until a search completes and the map zooms or pans to the result.
