I will take a look and see if we can do something. Wasn’t even considering it wasn’t updating during run-time.

FWIW, this observation hss come up more than once in the community forum and the general consensus is that, ever since it was implemented in version 0.57, changing an attribute’s value every second was determined to be undesirable.

Perhaps that opinion has changed and the development team is now open to a dynamic remaining attribute.
