Default Master custom properties don't transfer to drawing instance

In Vision 2000 SR1, I’ve made changes to the custom properties of master
shape on a stand alone stencil. When I drop an instance of that master on a
drawing page, there aren’t any custom properties in that instance. Nothing
shows up in the custom properties dialog box of that drawing shape but the
master still has all the custom properties. What am I doing wrong?

Once you drag the shape to the drawing and add the custom properties, select
the master on the Stencil (the stencil has to be in edit mode) and delete it.
Drag the copy on the drawing to the stencil and use this as the master.
