Text inset and paragraph format

[Ken_Dyall]

Why does FrameMaker change the paragraph format of the paragraph in which a text inset is anchored, when the inset is updated? I have an inset anchored in a Body paragraph with no other text in the paragraph. The settings for the inset are to reformat with the current document's settings. When I update the text inset, the paragraph format of the source paragraph changes to Heading1, or whatever the format of the first displayed paragraph in the text inset is. I don't understand how the paragraph format in the source document can change when the inset is updated, if the source formats are being applied to the inset. Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? I'm at present using FrameMaker 7, but will be upgrading to FrameMaker 10 fairly soon.

I think I may have found the answer to my question. If I add any text to the paragraph in which the inset is anchored, the paragraph format does not change when the inset is updated. I would still consider the behavior observed with a null paragraph to be a bug, but at least I have a workaround.

I think you have to have a paragraph tag with the format you want before the text inset.

Is there a fix for this yet, or is it even planned?  I'm still seeing this issue in FrameMaker 2017.

This problem is known to Adobe for ages. Please vote up https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/FRMAKER-12115. Maybe this helps to get some attention from the Adobe team.
