Quote - So in otherwords it's a hack that's not supported. Thanks Ometeotl.

It may be an "unsupported" hack, but as is is a very useful hack that was de facto supported by the software before SR2. It would seem very stupid if they did not go all out to fix this for the next service release. After all, it's probably a very minor issue in terms of coding, and the time needed to fix it.

There has been no shortage of unsupported hacks over the years. Some of them have become major supported features in later versions. "Unsupported" in this context just means "it's not in the manual, or advertising, so we can't be bothered to fix it".

Lest this seems like all condemnation and no praise, let me say that in general SR2 fixes a lot of issues, some of them very important to me. For example PP2012 used add corrupt data to group names when spawning  props from the Grouping Tool. That has now been fixed. In general, from what I have seen so far, SR2 seems to be an excellent piece of work, but that does not mean that it's beyond criticism in every aspect.
