Cannot change Characteristics order in product

-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.5
-- Joomla version -- : 3.2.4
-- PHP version -- : 5.4.32
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Opera 26.0

I have recently upgraded my Hika from 2.3.0 to 2.3.5 and I also rebuilding my products due to substantial characteristic and variant changes.

I have meal products that have three ingredient characteristics that can be chosen (meat, carbs, veg). I have a large number of meals with different weights and maximum qaunitites which share the same ingredient characteristics. To save time I create create one meal product (with the characteristics ordered: 1 meat, 2 cars, 3 veg) with variants based on the characteristics, assign images to the variants then copy that product to create the other meal products.

In the copy meal products the characteristics (meat, carb, veg) are reversed with and have order values of 0 and I can't change them. It's been a while since I built with Hika 2.3.0 but I don't recall having this problem.

***EDIT SORRY POSTED IN WRONG TOPIC BY ACCIDENT THREAD APOLOGIES***

UPDATE: I have tested (in an old Hika 2.3.0 copy of my site) dupilcating my meal products. After copying, the ingredient characteristics are set as 0 meat, 0 carb, 0 veg. I am then able to set the as 1 meat, 2 carb, 3 veg and save it without problems. Not son in Hika 2.3.5

Your welcome.

Patch appears to work. Thanks for replying.
