Re: DO NOT REPLY [Bug 31596] New: - Duration does not work correctly when using Scheduler and start Time

The behaviour you describe is not the intention, i.e. it is a bug.

I think this may have been fixed after 2.0.1 was released, in which
case there is a nightly you might like to try - no guarantees!
