Is "Keep position when parenting" bugged?

I'm experiencing issues using “Keep position when parenting” in Houdini Indie Limited-Commercial 16.5.378 in python and from the interface.

Checking the option or setting the “keeppos” parameter of the object to 1 in Python does not keep the object in place after parenting.




I'm realizing that I do not know a way to get to the object absolute coordinates once it's parented.

Thank you so very much!

This was keeping an IK/FK snap from working and I would not have figured everything was hinging on this setting.
