Targets/Stops do not match attached orders when adding

Hello,

I notice that after upgrading to the newest version of SC 2280 my targets no longer follow the tick value assigned to the attached orders when using my Trade Window.

I have tested this in live and sim trading. Bascially, when entering a new position, the targets and stops match the attached order. (Ex: enter 2 contracts, both with a stop 16 ticks from entry and T1 20 ticks and T2 40 ticks)

However, if one of the contracts is scaled out of the position, when I go to add a new contract, instead of having a stop 16 ticks from entry and a target 20 ticks from entry, the order is immediately combined to the original order, combining all contracts to a single target.

How can I change this? I want to add to a trade and have the targets and stops be measure against the new entry price, not join with existing orders. I prefer to manually move an order to the same stop if necessary, but for sure the targets will always be different.

Please advise.
Thank you
