Attach orders by position/price - BE and PnL not working

Hi
Issue: Place an order (that starts a position) with preconfigured attached target/stop, cancel target and stop, use "Send attached orders by Position/Price", the attached stop doesn't move to breakeven when the BE button is pressed in the trade window and also the target/stop order lines aren't showing PNL of the target/stop (they were shown on the original target/stop before they were cancelled).

Looks like the "Send attached orders by Position/Price" aren't really attaching the target/stop to the parent/position.
I've seen multiple threads discuss this, but I'm unable to really find a solution.
Can someone guide me to how I could get the "Send attached orders by Position/Price" to really attach the orders to the position so that BE and PNL would work as expected.

Thank you.

Is that an expected behavior?

No, this is not supported:

They are completely independent orders without any point of reference for breakeven.
