Temporary material lost when recovering with Run From Line

Hello all,
The cut recovery features baked into qtplasmac are life-savers!  I have, however, noticed that my temporary material from sheetcam is setup once at the beginning of the program.  If I have a cutting error and I need to do a run-from-line, the entire program up until the selected line is blown away, including the temporary material setup.  I've lost a few parts thinking my material was all setup during a cut recovery when it was lost.
How can I grab the temporary material when I need to do a run-from-line recovery? 
Thanks,

Can you post the original gcode, I don't see that issue here.

This was fixed some time ago, it was a small glitch.

Please ensure you have the latest version of QtPlasmac. 

Let us know if it continues

I misspoke when I said the temporary file was blown away.  It is still an option.  The problem is it is not loaded when a run from line command is being attempted, it loads the default material setup rather than the temporary material setup.  I've done it a few times, which I know is bad on me, but I'll be running a nested job, I get a cutting error, I attempt a run from line to recover and if I don't select the temporary material right before commanding it to run, it will run the default cutting material.  How can I make the temporary material the go to material when recovering?
Thanks all!

I don't see that here, what happens if you try the example metric_temporary_materials.ngc (or imperial_temporary_materials.ngc)

RNJFAB saved the day.  It's amazing how fast qtplasmac is being developed.  Updating to latest fixed my material issue. 
Thank you both.
