Bug Description

(minor "color" issue)

in master branch,

When you "import a hierarchical sheet pin" this pin is drawn using the "standard" color even if it is connected to a bus inside the child sheet.
When you connect it in the parent sheet the color is changed to the right one.

A (small) improvement could be have the "bus" color for that label when importing it.

Cheers,
Dino.

Attached: a simple project with one bus.
To reproduce:
 -open the schematic
 -use "import a hierarchical sheet pin" on the only hier. block present
 -it gets imported with the "net" color instead of the "bus" color.

Cheers,
Dino.
