The problem is that the processor is getting the first block that has that macro (because of how findContainingXmlBlockForMacro works, it returns the start / end position). setValue however, just uses str_replace / preg_replace.

To solve this, setCheckbox needs to remove the macro from the block, and then run findContainingXmlBlockForMacro again until it no longer finds a block with that tag. Another possibility is adding an offset parameter to findContainingXmlBlockForMacro, but this will have problems with shifting end positions because of replacements.
