Octagon Divisions with External Clock

Octagon sequencer Divisions seems to not work when sequencer is connected to an external sync. When connected to external, the divisions are 1/1.
Using internal clock they work as expected.
Is this a bug or expected behaviour?
Attached a patch to demonstrate.

I am relatively new to VM and wanted to look at this as my first attempt at using Octagon. I tried it with an LFO as an external clock source, not the Sync Divider. I got similar results as you. The 4 repetitions at step 2 sync to the external clock and do not respect the DIV setting (i.e., they are not sped up to fit within the beat).
Per the documentation: "Note: The Division function is disabled when using an external clock source (because external clock pulses happen once per sequence pulse or step and can't be "multiplied.""

Missed that note from the docs. Thanks.
