When run Do_Dimensions_Test function from the Element_Test example, the dimensions attached to the column disappear or change the anchor point. The column is made with a complex profile. Tested in AC25 and AC26.

It seems that the problem occurs because the dimensions of the column do not have base.inIndex (always equal to 0)
