Hi Stefan,
I checked the issue you pointed out.
I made a test with 1.1.8 standalone distribution downloadable from [1].
Then I just run Syncope standalone (as described in [2]) and made a test with
existing roles.
In particular I noticed that running test with "role 6 director" that has two
children "role 7 managingDirector" and "role 10 managingConsultant" inheritance
of boolean attributes works fine (I used existing attribute "show").
But editing boolean attribute "show" for "role 4 employee" the problem that you
described happens for "role 5 secretary".
Querying for roles with Syncope rest methods ([3]) I found that probably the
problem is due to the fact that by flagging to true "inherit attribute" option
for an existing (or a new) role, new boolean-attributes are created (for that
role) and set to "false", instead of loading parent attributes. This problem
seems to happen only for boolean attributes and is leading to the incongruity
you correctly described.

> Key: SYNCOPE-543
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-543
> Project: Syncope
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: core
> Affects Versions: 1.1.8, 1.2.0, 1.3.0
> Reporter: Stefan Auw Yang
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.1.9, 1.2.0, 1.3.0
>
>
> Even though "inherit Attributes" flag is checked, there is no way to set the
> child role's check box attribute (which defined with boolean type in schema)
> to inherit the value from parent.
> Is this considered as expected behavior?
> Is there actually any way to archive this?
