Summary0002164: Unable to create edge linked to external geometry when creating a window
DescriptionEdge to external geometry is not saved when closing window sketch.
Steps To ReproduceI select a surface of a wall and choose the window tool. It is possible to create an edge to external geometry and make constraints between the window and the edge. When closing and reopening the sketch, the edge and the constraints are gone.

I could not reproduce the error using macro, there is another error when executing the macro.

Maybe the macro is of help.

Open the drawing https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106944188/FreeCAD/window/plan3.FCStd

Run the macro https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106944188/FreeCAD/window/cre_window.FCMacro

 This is a current limitation of the Window object (walls depend on it, and it depends on its sketch, so that sketch cannot depend on the wall). Unless we find another concept to make windows create holes in walls automatically, that doesn't create dependency, it won't be solved anytime soon.

Unfortunately at the moment there is nothing that can be done to solve this issue.
