Capital Gains that come from U.S. obligations for Maryland

I am using TT Premier. I did not sell any stocks or mutual funds in 2022, so I didn't receive any 1099-Bs. I did receive 1099-DIVs from two mutual fund companies. When entering these in Federal section, I did follow the instructions to enter in the portion of box 1a that is dividends from US goverment interest, as the 1099-DIVs included this percentage, so I mult box 1a times this percentage and entered it in for each.

Now when I am in the MD state return, in the Income from US Obligations section, it does show the correct amount from what I entered for the dividends (box 1a) in the federal section. There is an EDIT button next to this, and it asks to enter any portion of your *capital gains* that came from US obligations. I checked my 1099-DIV and it doesn't mention percentage for capital gains distribution (box 2a of 1099-DIV).  The help mentions 1099-B or other brokerage statements, but I didn't receive a 1099B bc I didn't sell, and the I can't find any brokerage statement that mentions a separate percentage breakout for capital gains.  Where do I get this information? Should the box labeled Total From US Obligations then be left at 0? Does it even apply for someone who just received 1099-DIV, not any 1099-B?

 

I checked and see other posts where no one is able to get this information from their brokers so can you explain for what situation is this asked for, especially for the case where I have not put in any 1099B.
