switching a channel to various automation modes messed up

[Cryos]

I'm currently using Protools Ultimate ver 2018.4

i recently updated Eucontrol to ver 18.3.0.219 and also updated my ipad's PT-Control App as well. all my units firmware are current. Now I cannot use the Docs Automation push buttons to switch automation modes on a selected fader strip. I have to hold down the shift key on the doc or on the Atrist mix suface and push the "Rec" button next to the fader on the dock or mixers to do this!

Basically the Automation switches on the the doc are now Non Functional. Has something changed that I'm unaware of or did the folks in development mess something up in a big way?

contact me for more info directly avid.

Thanks
