IMC Coverage figures in ascii report differs from GUI & html report

Hi all,

I have problems to get the same coverage figures shown in the GUI & html report versus the plain ascii report for a toplevel module.

I am using the following script:

merge -overwrite -message 1 -out cov_merge -runfile cov_merge.lst -metrics all
load cov_work/scope/cov_merge
load -refinement coverage/tja1448a/tja1448a_refine.vRefine
report -overwrite -summary -inst -all -html -out cov_reports/html
report -summary -inst ivn_smos10hv_tja14yx_tb.APP.PKG.DIE.u0_ivn_smos10hv_tja14yx_kookaburra -all -out cov_reports/tjf1441a_toplevel.rpt

After execution of the refinement file as well in the GUI or checking after batch mode execution, the figures for the specific module in question are the same which is expected.However the same figures reported in the text file (last cmd of script) delivers a lower result for the Overall Average, Overall Covered, Code Average & Code covered and for these 4 categories the number is the same.

See snapshot: Reporting_coverage.pdf

Question: Why is the lowest figure printed for all 4 categories while in the GUI these figures are different? 

I used all kind of metrics options in the 2nd report cmd  but still get the (lowest?) figure which seems to be related to the Expression categorie. Also using the 1rst report cmd and replacing -html by -text still yields in the same low figure of 67.29%

IMC release: IMC(64) 15.20-s029
