Can anyone confirm the inability to select a tuplet using the tuplet tool when a new window (i.e., 2nd window) of the same file is open?

Clicking on the first tuplet note displays the little selection box but I am unable to select it until I close the 2nd window of that file.

I am able to select the handle, and the dialogue box opens. However, it does something bizarre. It launches a tuplet on the note following the one I selected. For example, I tried to modify the triplet by adding a bracket. Instead, it created an extra triplet on the following note, with the bracket.

Quite odd.

P.S.: I checked back in earlier versions. This behavior seems to have begun in v25.
