Is this new in 2247.7.0? If so, does it work in older versions?

neale-bpm commented 4 years ago

I've not used it before on previous versions so I don't know. I'd guess it did at some point because someone documented it

I just tried this on both current alpha and stable and could not reproduce. Can you still reproduce?
