Asset Folder Properties - Custom properties not are saved

[30991930w169]

Hello,
I extended and customized the properties of the dam mnt/overlay/dam/gui/content/assets/v2/foldersharewizard folder by inserting a new  field -->Location CF .
I am experiencing this problem: the data that appears in the new field is not saved.

I simply extended under /apps the following path "dam/gui/content/assets/v2/foldersharewizard" and added my property in tab1

 My content.xml :

Alternatively, is it possible to add a pathfield properties as a field to the folder metadata schema?
