I cannot reproduce this problem with the last available version 2.12.1. Which version are you using? In case it's not the latest one yet, can you please update and try again?

I have figured it out. You are correct it does what it says. I was
approaching the problem by my own logic not that of the program.
My bad.
Thanks
