firmware 3.63 bug?

John Adams-2
I just downloaded 3.63 and find that tapping vfo REV does not change the vfo,
just momentarily while the button is held.
Is this the intended way for it to operate?
Prior to the installation, tapping the button swapped vfo's.

Hi John,

"REV" reverses VFOs A and B for as long as you press the switch. This  
has not changed from previous revisions. It's intended as a means for  
checking your transmit frequency (and possibly adjusting it) while  
operating split.

To swap VFOs A and B permanently, tap "A/B".

I think that's how mine has always worked!  To actually change the VFO's,
you need to tap the A/B button.  The REV button is only for temporary
reversal while you hold the button down.  Are you sure yours didn't always
work that way?
