Associative labels created as existing

When I create "associative labels" in v19 and v20 they are created as EXISTING elements even though my renovations pallet is selected on NEW.

I have had this problem going back to 19 and now still an issue in 20. I realise it may be something to do with my template or old settings / favourites as they were created in previous version but it is a problem nonetheless.

Am I the only one having this issue? Any advice?

Yes, it is strange because in your file it is apparently a bug, but in a brand new AC20 file it works fine for me.
If you start a brand new project with New & Reset, does a problem occur? If not, then it may very well be a file-specific problem.

Thanks Laszlo. I am not quite sure what you mean by New and Reset? I tried Open and Repair and that did not help.

This is a video of a new file started with the international template v20 and it's default settings/favourites. Still the same problem?! I did not expect that to be the case. Can we confirm this is a bug?!
