Sketcher in Edit Mode didn't respect Properties

If one changes one of these properties of a existing sketch:

Sketcher in Edit mode didn't care about:

A little bit confusing, especially because "grid snapping" gets active while checkbox shows opposite

There is an issue. At testing this, I had a document with two sketches. After activating Grid Snap in both sketches and deactivating it in the second one I got the following situation:
Grid Snap was not checked in both sketches in the edit widget.
Snapping was active in the first sketch.
Snapping was inactive in the second sketch.

So it looks like, that the snapping option is stored per sketch, but the edit mode widget shows something like the preference setting.

Can you please leave a comment?

Changing the property always works and WYSIWYG. The problem is with the edit widget, that the checkbox does not get updated.

It is a very old bug, as I can reproduce it in my vintage version:

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.16.6698 (Git)
Build type: Debug
Branch: (no branch, bisect at 4c7a0a140)

Python version: 2.7.15rc1

Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 6.9.1.oce-0.18

I will take a look...

issue #3689

[wmayer]

The Edit Control panel is the same widget as used in the preferences and its original intention was to restore/save the settings when editing a sketch. But this behaviour is indeed somewhat confusing and also makes it unnecessarily hard to have different settings per-sketch.
