Select on launch broken?

If I launch a clip by clicking on its play head, then that clip immediately appears in the clip view - whether I have "Select on launch" turned on or off.

If I launch a clip by triggering it over MIDI, then that clip does not appear in the clip view - again whether I have "Select on launch" turned on or off.

I understood that whether or not the clip appears in the clip view when that clip is triggered is set by the "Select on launch" preference, not determined by how I actually trigger the clip...

Have I misunderstood what "Select on launch"does or is it broken?

No comments? No one who would care to confirm or deny this? No one uses this option?

I have the same problem, as have others. From what I have read it is specific to 4.x. If we bug ableton about it, they'll fix it?
Are you doing live looping using a foot pedal?

Er, no.

Just dropping one clip while playing another, and sometimes I want to continue watching the original clip to "cue" my next action.

Will e-mail them directly now that it doesn't look like it's just me.

Thanks for confirming it.
