[bug/unforseen usage] SubShapeBinder Base.Support changes when attached.

Post by kisolre »

I am on a bug streak today :)
Create body. Create sketch with some content. Create SubShapeBinder of that sketch. Select SunShapeBinder, invoke Part/Attachment, select something to attach to, confirm. Now SubShapeBinder has its Attachment.Support set to what was desired but its Base.Support has also changed to the same value and the original link to sketch is lost. Maybe there cant be two properties with same name? Should Base.Support be renamed to something else? How to preserve backward compatibility??
I was trying to put scalable SubShapeBinders along a path for this thread... Mixed Offset for Scale but found a bug :) And why not have scalable SubShapeBinders also?
