Box Around AFDS Pitch Mode Without a Change in Pitch Mode (Nick's AOA Video)

Featured Replies

In Nick's (AoA) informative video on YouTube, after takeoff, the pitch model changes from TOGA to ALT at 1,300 ft, with the MCP altitude set at 3,000 ft.  the ALT annunciation has a green box around it, as it should (1:04:05 in the video).  Then, when the aircraft actually captures the 3,000 ft altitude, the ALT annunciation gets another green box around it, even though there is no change in the displayed mode (1:05:04 in video).

 

My understanding is that the green box only appears when there is a change in the mode.  Since the box appeared without a change in the mode, I was wondering if this was perhaps a minor bug.
