color label a clip is changing all clips

I'm having an issue where if I am making cuts to a clip, and then change the color lable of just that one section of the clip, it changing the color of all parts of the same clip. This means that if I have a clip consisting of, say, 5 takes, and cut and change the label color to oragange, not only does that one segment change color, but so does all the remaining pieces of the clip.

 

It doesn't happen instantly either, but over the course of 20 seconds, and happens oddly, so I believe this is a bug.

It's now over in the wrench-icon menu in the Timeline panel ... at the very top, Show Source Clip Name and Label ...

That would be because you have something checked you want to uncheck. Look in your Project file, the bottom option of the General page as shown below.

 

That checked option to show the same color across all instances in your project must currently be checked as below. Uncheck it.
