Autofocus ALL Not Working

[AlaskanMariner]

According to the manual, the rear dial is supposed to scroll through point, zone and wide tracking when ALL is selected.  But that's not happening for me.  I'm guessing some other setting is overriding that selection, but I can't figure it out.  Thoughts please

I just figured this out by accident -- you have to push in on the joy stick to activate the scrolling feature when ALL is selected.  I certainly didn't find that mentioned in the manual 😕

perhaps it could have been clearer but it does say 

"Use the focus stick (focus lever) and rear command dial to choose a focus area."

Its quite complicated because you can change the way the focus stick works by changing options in the setup menus.

I read that but somehow gained the impression that it was referring to video mode.  I first heard about this option in one of Dan Bailey's videos and he mentioned scrolling, but nothing about the joystick.  I tried using it today while shooting a bird, but found it awkward to use.  But that was just the first try.

I configure my X-H2S so that the joystick centres the focus point - but I tend to stay in wide/area tracking with subject detection so don’t need quick access to the point/zone size.
