Propagate document properties automatically

I've set user permissions on a folder in an attempt to have all files within the folder adopt the given permissions. I've also applied the "Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown here..." option from the Advanced dialog. The problem is, when I write new files into the folder, they don't adopt the folder's permissions.

"That setting just sets the permissions on the files and folders in the folder at the point in time when you click to set those permissions.
Folder properties are to control what users can and cannot do.
What sort of files are you trying to put in there that you would want to set the permissions for? What I mean is do they come from an App or do you copy them in there?"
