Synchronize defaults from the selection for the Pen Tool

[BobX]

Hi everybody,

I have an issue with synchronizing defaults from the selection for the Pen Tool.
It works for Shapes, Pencil Tool, and even for the Vector Brush,
but it fails every time I try to set defaults for the Pen Tool.

Has anyone an idea, how can I avoid or fix this issue?
Many thanks in advance.

I use Affinity Designer 1.8.2 on Mac (High Sierra 10.13.6)

Can you confirm your workflow and let me know the options you set.
