"Bold" button state is wrong on new components

Edit Subject

When I create a new component (I noticed on a label - might also be the case with others), the font shows in bold type, but the "bold" button in the inspector shows it's not. I then click the button once, so that it matches the font and a second time to actually select the normal font face.

1. Create new label: the font face doesn't match the button state

2. First click on "bold" button. Now it matches.

3. Second click on "bold" button. Now the font is finally non-bold.

I might have had this behavior on an existing component again; I'm not sure any more and I can't check at the moment.

This is with latest Mockups for Desktop 2.0.21 on Mac OS X.

The default text state of paragraphs, labels, etc., is bold, but the inspector palette thinks that the text isn't bold. So to unbold text I have to toggle the bold property on, and then off.

Either the inspector should default to bold being selected, or the text should default to not bolded when added to a mockup. My vote is for unbolded text. The default text in the paragraph even shows the bold markup (**) but you can't see it since the text always defaults to bold.

After inputing a text element it is bold by default, but the property inspector does not show that.

As an effect, should one wish to make the font normal, one would have to click on the "b" icon twice (or hit ctrl+b twice).
I am pretty sure it was not like that in previous releases.
Best regards
