Incorrect display of Time Estimate attribute in Scrum

Hi,

The project area uses Scrum template. I add 3 attributes with Time Estimate type in Edit Presentation panel. That's to say, there are 4 attributes with Time Estimate, one is "Estimate", which is the default attribute, another three are the customized.

However, I found a weird case. When I type into one of the Correction, the other three correction are filled with what I enter. That is to say, the value of the four correction fields are always  the same. Please see the screenshot.

What's more, for the first field of each time estimate attribute, the value of "Estimate" will be the same with the value where the cursor is. For example, if the original value of Estimate is 1h, if the cursor is at Preparation, then Estimate's value will be the same with Preparation's.
  
If I type into the Execution field, then Estimate's value will be the same with Execution's.

Is it a defect of RTC? Or it's because my incorrect use of Time Estimate type?
Hope your answer. Thanks a lot!

Why I can't paste image in my question. I have added 4 images, but they are missing after publishing the question.

You probably don't have the reputation. Also you can't just paste a question, you have to use the menu to add one. Try to upload the image somewhere and then provide the link.

Hmm, I see the images in edit mode. Odd.

The Estimation presentation is a special one, and it can well be, that this is the reason for what you see.

Hi Ralph, there can be only one Time Estimate attribute in a work item?

If the all the correction fields are filled with the same value by force, then the other Time Estimate attributes are useless.

If you look at the two presentations, you realize that you select one attribute in two presentations, but you actually have 3 attributes that are involved - but the 3rd is nowhere specified. And actually the calculations involves all three attributes. I don't know how it is implemented, but there seems to be a logic in the background. I don't know if you can use it multiple times.
