In this weekend's forum daylong (board 1) I had an easy claim of the rest of the tricks after trick four, so it should be plus one. I am used to the claim being by default all tricks if I am on lead so I just claimed the default, but apparently the default was 7 of the remaining 9 tricks so I accidentally claimed for one down.

I think it would be better if the default is all tricks. If that is too much, the claim will just be rejected so no harm is done.

The default definitely is all tricks. Perhaps you accidentally double clicked the claim button, and the 7 happens to be around the same place as you clicked.
