Can Motor direction using ST Motor Control Workbench 'Monitor' be changed when motor is running?

I am using the ST Motor Control Workbench V5.4.1.19309 with a brushless DC motor, Nanotec DB59L024035-A. I have successfully profiled the motor using 'Motor Profiler 5.41. The motor parameters and Speed Sensing have been set to use Hall Sensors. When I use the Workbench Monitor function to start and stop the motor in either direction, the motor spins as expected. However, when I attempt to switch motor direction while the motor is running, the motor stops with either a 'speed feedback' error or an 'over-voltage' error. Should the motor algorithms allow the motor direction to be rapidly changed while the motor is running? - I would have expected the code to slow the motor to a stop, and then ramp the motor speed up in the opposite direction.
