Subject: Inherit bends of parent doesn't "stick"

I modeled an article of clothing for V4 and found that I don't even have to make it conforming. Simply parenting it to the abdomen and selecting "Inherit bends of parent" in the Object Parent window is sufficient and it works really well when bending. I mean, surprisingly well, as in no poke-through at all.

So anyway I save it as a smart prop in P Pro 2010 and then reload it and go to bend her and the clothing prop is parented still, but not bending right. So I open up the Object Parent window again and re-parent it to the abdomen and re-select "Inherit bends of parent" and then it works fine again.

I tried this many times, each time with the same result - deleting and reloading, and re-parenting, and it's simply not saving the "Inherit bends of parent" along with the prop, even though I AM saving it as a smart prop.

So what, is this a bug or is that just the way it is?

Incidentally, it seems to me we used to be able to expand the Object Parent window like we can the hierarchy window, but we can't now. Unless I'm just imagining that, which is entirely possible. ;-)

In any event, I think it would be super special if we could expand that window.
