QWin 2018 HBRP: calendar does not show expenses on home calendar view

Upgraded from Quicken 2016 Home and Business to Quicken 2018 Home and Business with Rental option - Expenses do not show on home page calendar. Checked the appropriate checkbox under options for calendar but no expenses. tried deleting and adding back the calendar under customization but no luck. The expenses do show up on calendar under Tools>Calendar. Just not on the home page calendar.

As a test I deleted a reminder that i had to transfer money from Checking to Savings. This reminder was not showing on the calendar. I created a new reminder for this transfer and now it is showing on the Home Tab Calendar. That's really strange.
Definitely a bug in there somewhere. I use the Scheduled view under the Home Tab everyday so this discrepancy was noticed immediately after upgrading.

How do we make sure Quicken has this info so they can patch? (New at this community) Do i need to open a support chat or contact them outside of this community?
An example would be my auto payment. In my mind that's a Bill but Quicken treats it as a Transfer. You can see this when you add a reminder for a transaction that is in your checking register. Quicken will title the reminder as a Transfer or Bill depending on where the money flowed in the transaction. Must be if the money goes to another Quicken account then it's a transfer. So any loan payments are Transfers like Mortgage and Auto. In my mind those are Bills.
On the Bills & Income Tab the Bills view is only showing Bills while Transfers are shown on the Income & Transfers view.
I guess it all makes sense from a Bankers point of view. I tend to think more like a consumer and not so much like a Banker.
A long thread on it is discussed here:

I also see that they've changed the graph colors again to something i don't like. I wish they would provide a preference to allow us setting these colors ourselves. Boo Hiss. This is probably the last version of Quicken I'll ever purchase. They just don't have their act together.
Philip,
in Q 2018 for Windows you can change graph colors: Go to Edit / Preferences / Colors.
I haven't got R 3 yet, so I don't know if there are any improvements. In R 2.3 not all graphs worked with the custom color scheme.
The bar graphs I'm referring too are the Lifetime Planner graph on the Planning tab and the Bill and Income Reminders graph on the Home tab, Scheduled view.
CTRL-K also works, as noted above.
I am using Quicken 2018 HBRP Edition. version R2.3, Build 27.1.2.20
The Show Full Calendar button gives you something that looks like a pop-up window. This view seems to closely match what we used to see in the Bills and Income section.
Lets hope this fix this soon because it's an absolute hassle when you can't forecast.
