BUG: 8.0 SR1 Exegetical Guide

This bug applies with the default Exegetical Guide as well as a custom EG. 

Change the Word for Word section to generate all parts of speech, but with no parts of speech selected. The expected behavior is that when the Word for Word section is expanded, none of the word sections will expand. It works one time.

The problem is that once the guide is closed and reopened, the all parts of speech remains selected, but Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives, and Adverbs are automatically selected and when the section is expanded, all are generated. Reconfiguring this setting in the guide editor rather than section settings results in the same behavior.

EDIT: I just discovered that if at least one part of speech is selected, then the settings are remembered when EG is closed and then reopened. So it appears the program does like the idea of having nothing selected.

    I hope it gets fixed soon.

    This bug is still present in 8.3 B1. It this really that hard to fix?

    This has been fixed in 8.4.

    It has been great using the word for word section of the guide since this was fixed.
