Fusion 360 Selecting Individual Items In Component Pattern

I have a plate of stock that holds 20 items, and to machine it, I have been using Component Pattern to reiterate the Operations from a source Component. I'm trying to select a individual Component from the source to machine by itself before continuing with the rest of the plate, but for some reason, Fusion 360 won't allow Simulate, nor Post Processing unless at least two Components are selected. Even the Machining Time display at the bottom right shows 0:00:00 unless more than one Components are selected in the pattern.

 

I've tried messing with the settings in the Component Pattern window, Automatic and Keep Original are both off. I've tried regenerating, restarting Fusion, and using a different computer. The same issue persists when I try the same approach on a different program.

 

This seems to be a brand new issue, because I have often used this approach before, but I was always able to select a single component from the pattern.

Sorry about that @aromero107 would you be able to share the part + possibly a screencast of the issue?
Was this something which worked for you in the previous release (i.e. before the July 7 release)

Yes I was able to do this before the update, and as you can see, I'm only able to simulate as long as more than one Components are selected. Also at the end it looks like I manage to select only one component, but that's because I have Keep Original selected and I've selected the source as a target, so the operation is just repeated twice on the same Component.
