CODECOMPOSER: Cannot set Skip Count on a breakpoint

I'm running CCS 10.3.1.00003, communicating with an MSP EXP430FR5994 development board.

I have a single breakpoint set on a NOP instruction inside of a loop.

I'd like to set its skip count to 100, but it doesn't appear to take.  I've tried a bunch of things:

• - Reload the code, halt at the entry point to main(), then try to set the skip count.
• - Run the code up to the breakpoint then try to set the skip count.
• - Run past the breakpoint at least once, then try to set the skip count

... but in every case, the skip count remains at 0.  When I say "set the skip count", my process is:

1. Right click on the breakpoint in the breakpoint view, which brings up the context menu
2. Select "Breakpoint Properties"
3. Select the property for "Skip Count"
4. Click on [Edit Property]
5. Change the 0 to 100
6. Click on [Apply And Save]

But the skip count remains at 0.
