Questions/Issues with Parametric Analysis Tool (PAT )

I am using the PAT tool to evaluate some design alternatives, and finding some workflow questions/potential issues that I am hoping to get some help with:

• What is the rationale for not being able to combine Measures from the same Measure Group into one Design Alternative?

• On the Run Simulations screen, I can't select individual Design Alternatives and run them. Should I be able to do this?

• Creating a new Measure/Measure Group, or reordering of Measures, causes the Design Alternatives I created to be deleted. Is this a bug, or what is the rationale for this?
