Marty,

Is what you’re seeing anything like I wrote in this bug report: http://quality.runrev.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13883

I included a screen capture of what was happening. If your issue seems like the same thing, leave a comment on the bug report. It would be nice if the mother ship could tighten this feature up a bit. 

Regards,

Devin
