Revit View Filters: Priority Does Not Update Unless View Is Force-Reloaded

Wanting to know if this one is a bug or if this is intentional behavior of the Revit API: 

 

If I have two rule-based filters that select the same element in any given view, the priority system of the filter does work but does not show in my view until I force the view to reload. I can do this by enabling and disabling temporary view properties, closing and re-opening the view, etc. The view does not reload itself to properly show a view filter priority adjustment.

 

For example, I have two identical filters selecting the same Door 7A via a Mark parameter "equals" selection. One of these filters overrides the door to show a green cut, and one overrides the door to show a blue cut. When I freshly load the view, the filter at the top is the color that is shown in my view.

If I open the view filters and adjust the blue filter to be on top, the view does not refresh to show the filter properly after pressing "Ok" (and I will add that there is no option to press "Apply" here):

But if I close the view and reopen it (or enable/disable temporary view property, etc), the the view refreshes and shows the door properly:

Does anyone know why a filter priority change does not refresh the view graphics?

Thanks, I'll re-post.

 

Thought it belonged in API since it would affect Struc and MEP, too.
