Tooltip behavior in managed COBOL

$

Does "Show OCCURS or reference modification value" work in managed COBOL? I have it set (checked) in Debug>Options and settings..., Debugging>Micro Focus COBOL, under Tooltip style. And yet while debugging a managed COBOL class and stopped at a breakpoint, hovering over a reference modified alphanumeric variable displays the entire value vice just the referenced portion; i.e., hovering over SEL-ERATE (1:3) displays "EMN2 " instead of "EMN". And more troubling is hovering over a subscripted variable displays the value of the first element regardless of the value of the subscript: i.e., hovering over LST-UIC (X) where X has the value 13 displays the value in LST-UIC (1) vice the expected value in LST-UIC (13). Clicking the triangle icon at the left end of the Tooltip does display a scrollable list for the LST-UIC array, but this is clunky when the array is hundreds of elements long. What have I missed in trying to get the Tooltip to exhibit the desired behavior?
