SHIELDed sub problem

I'm running 1.9.6 on an ION with a 2x20 fader wing.  If I Shield a sub and record cues it works as expected, however, if part way through programming I want to record those channels contained in the sub in a cue I have a problem.  I can un-Shield the sub and the Tombstone display correctly has the S removed from the channels that are in the sub, but if I give those channels an intensity value, either by raising the handle or from the keypad, the channels are not recorded in the cue.  I hope that this is not the intended function.  The only way I have found to give those channels an intensity value is in blind.

    The submaster is not Exclusive.

    Could the submaster also be set as exclusive? That would keep the sub from recording into the targets.

    Well, my bad.  I read the release notes more carefully and it says that a sub that is Shielded is also automatically made Exclusive.    What is not explained is that when the sub is un-Shielded the Exclusive is NOT removed.  So that explains what I am seeing.

    I think that since the Exclusive is automatically applied it should also be removed when a sub is un-Shielded.

    Playing with 1.9.6 today, I discovered that:

    Channels 1 - 6 at 80% in a Shielded-sub (#1)

    Run sub to full.

    manually type 1-6 at 20%

    Record to sub 16.

    Blind, Sub 16, the channels will be there at 20%.

    take out sub #1.  Display shows Yellow '0' with S.  Run up sub 16, nothing happens (still shielded by #1).

    Unshield #1.  the manual level of 20% will appear in red.  You can sneak it out.
