When “Auto Convert Properties” is turned on and you have an input file with several cell-based variables, the threshold filter min/max sliders are stuck on the first variable’s limits, i.e. it is only possible to threshold the first variable correctly.

The workaround is to switch auto convert off, however, I find this option very handy for other filters.
