Digitone Midi in behavior

Not sure if this has been discussed… I couldn’t seem to find anything on it. I’m trying to p-lock different note values on trigs in a sequence using a Digitakt midi track in chromatic mode, but the note values aren’t changed. I press and hold a trig on the Digitone and press the note I want on the Digitakt “keyboard”, but the note value is not entered. If I live rec, the note values are recorded. Bug or limitation?
