Using auto fill for multi universe DMX addresses

My latest plot uses five universes and I wanted to use Auto-Fill with the dimmer catagory to set DMX addresses using the 2.1 format (2nd Universe.Address #1 = 513). Auto-Fill treats dimmer like channel with subchannels in that it increments the number before the decimal rather than the number after. Is there a fix for this?

The latest build 4.2.2 allows conversion from and to universe notation when using auto fill for the dimmer field.

To clarify, this works when dimmer is selected as the auto-fill field.
If you enter 3.1 in the start with box, it will get converted to 1025.
Then, when auto filling, the first light selected will have 3.1 entered in its dimmer field (1025 is converted to 3.1)
if the next selected light gets the dimmer +1, it will be calculated as 1026 and translated into the light's dimmer field as 3.2.
