Just to add to my troubleshooting I've tried restarting AE and my machine but the result presist. It almost feels like a memory allocation issue but that is pure speculation.

Thanks for reporting this. We'd like to investigate further. To help us reproduce the issue on our end, do you mind sharing this or any other project file that repeats the issue?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,
Nishu

Hi @dave_3D,

Thanks for your report and files. We were able to reproduce the issue and created a ticket for a fix. The specific issue is regarding using "2" as the first menu item in a dropdown menu when there are only 2 items. As shown in your video, the easiest workaround is to spell out 2 while we work on the fix.

Thanks again!
Theresa
