Intensity @ + #%

Hi All,
In the latest manual is written that:
"Fixture 4 @ + 5, Enter: increases the intensity of Fixture 4 by 5%"
I have checked in 1.3.8.6 (build 956) and the syntax is:
Fixture # @ + 5 Enter - increases the intensity by 50%
Fixture # @ + 05 Enter - increases the intensity by 5%
I think it is how it should be.
Where is the bug? In the console or in the manual?
I hope it's manual because the syntax I have used is more natural for me.

Thanks,
Marcin

According to bug #7258 (which discussed this functionality and has been fixed), the current behaviour of the console is correct.

Marcin,

As Tom pointed out this change occured in 1.3.8.1 due to a request from Akito. The behavior was inconsistent with /,+,- and bug 7528 cleaned this area up. In fact the bug also mentions a change to the manual, which did occur, but it seems this other line persisted in the manual. I have notified our technical writer and we will update the manual for the next version.

thanks,
