Is there a way to tell Brewmate that you're adding sugar additions late in the boil? The pre-boil gravity it gives includes them and seems to deny me any chance to tell it that they're not going in until the last 15 mins of the boil.

Not only does this distort the pre boil gravity figure (which I can still get by just deleting the sugar for a moment) but it also mucks up the IBU prediction, which on my current brew is a couple of points higher once I've temporarily deleted the sugar additions.
 
A) It slightly affects your hop utilisation and
B) I want Brewmate to give me the preboil gravity without the sugar, so I can then tweak the amount of sugar itself to hit my target OG.
