Arena 7 Random playback mode doesn't store Distance value after relaunch

Hello!

I discovered what I suppose to be a bug:

I have a clip set set to BPM Sync mode in Transport controls and playback mode is set to Random. When I change Distance value it works ok until next relaunch of Arena (yeah, I remember to save composition before closing App). Then it resets to default value of 8. The clip is encoded with DXV3 codec. Arena 7.05 rev67117, OSX.

Hmm, works for me with both Audio and Video clips?
Are we missing a step maybe?

The problem happens when you have a long clip. You can try it yourself even with the short one - just set the number of beats in Clip transport controls to e.g. 256. Then crank the Distance value also to 256 (or the bug won't work - even 255 won't), then switch to another deck and launch another clip. Return to your first deck, launch the first clip and voila! Look at the Distance value now.

Indeed, something's weird when using a Beats count lot larger than the clip's original duration.
Made a ticket.

I first discovered it with long videos that have original duration of 256 beats. Thanks!
