I can't reproduce this, but I did find another bug while looking for it:
you can't set the default for reference bottom left or bottom right.

What preview?

I see this and will fix it.

I get a what's this '?' icon in the window frame that works fine.  You
don't?
In any case, a better system might be in order.  This might even call for a
'format help' button (?)

Driver issue?  Upstream?

It does not trigger apply.  It just enables the apply button, so that you
