When drilled into, a node with a Structure set to "Map (Clockwise)" is displayed as "Map" #29

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start a new mind map.
2. Set initial node's Structure to "Map (Clockwise)"
3. Hit Tab to add a node.
4. Observe that the new node's Structure is set to "Map (Clockwise)".
5. Drill down into new node. (F6)
6. Observe that new node's Structure is currently "Map" instead of "Map 
(Clockwise)".

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
    I expect to see the drilled down node's Structure to continue to be 
displayed Clockwise.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
    3.0.1  Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit

The new node is not explicitly assigned with the 'Map (Clockwise)' structure. 
It just automatically inherits that 
value from its parent, which may depend on complicated calculation. This value 
is transient and may be changed 
if the node is moved elsewhere. So after drilling down, the program has to use 
a default structure (i.e. 'Map') 
since it's unable to reproduce that calculation while the parent topic is 
absent. 

Keeping using 'Map (Clockwise)' may come with a new feature in the future. For 
now, it's recommended to 
explicitly mark the new node with 'Map (Clockwise)' structure manually after 
drilling down.
