using snippet variables in a nested snippet

[yonatanlehman]

I use snipper variables as a way of "passing parameters" to a snippet

Let's say I have a snippet S1 that takes as a variable S1_P1
Now if I use S1 in a topic it works as expected - but if I use S1 in a different snippet S2, the values of the variables set un S1 are ignored and the values are taken from the topic, from the target - anywhere but from the snippet.

Anyone else encountered this and either found a workaround?

I reported this to Madcap way back - but like many other issues, I have never seen an update that resolves these problems
