It should work. The simulator screenshots provided above aren’t a perfect representation of your condition because they assume (simulate) that there is an alt input and will alwayssequence past the alt terminated leg. In the real world with no alt input oruncorrected baro input, the active heading-to-alt leg will be active untilmanually sequenced. While on the fly 255deg/1200’ leg (active) the L3 butlerwill present a sequence leg option and a yellow CAS will be presented. We used the simulation environment with the above scenario to verifythe behavior (see image). There is no shortcut to automate the behavior shortof installing corrected baro alt input.

From your description however, it looks like you highlighted the Fly heading020deg leg which would be how you defeated the butler (the available LSK on the left).
One important note too: There are some legs which cannot be manually activated by selecting the leg and using the "Activate Leg" LSK,heading legs being one of them. Generally, if it's terminated by a fix,you can activate it, but there are exceptions even to that rule (e.g. holds,origin, et. al.)
