Window title for dashboard not updating

I’m trying to change the window title for a dashboard to match the menu text for the dashboard.

I changed both the Caption and Description under the General tab. I couldn’t find the window title anywhere else. When I do this it does change the title of the Dashboard window and tab in the Dashboard screen, but when I deploy the dashboard it still has the old title. I tried clearing the cache with no luck. I also tried the “test” button under “Deploy Dashboard”.

The screenshot below shows what I mean: on top I have set the caption and description, then went to deploy, checked “Deploy Smart Client Application” (I also tried leaving this unchecked and it made no difference) and then I clicked “Test Application”. At the bottom is the window that pops up; the window title is still the old title. I have highlighted the expected title and circled in red what I am actually seeing:

Why don’t they match? How do I change the window title?

It’s a bug, and it still exist in 11.

Close the dashboard, clear client cache, exit the client.
Open the dashboard and redeploy/preview.

Thanks! Sure enough, that did it.
