1099-R and Question about inheriting IRA

I inherited (assumed) the IRA of my spouse who died in mid-2024.  In late 2024, I took a distribution from that IRA and received a 1099-R with Code 7 = taxable.  That's correct.  After I input into TurboTax, I get question about inheriting the IRA from spouse.  If I answer YES, the software makes this distribution nontaxable rollover.  That's not true.  Any help on this question?  Thank you.

Thanks very much.  Now the 1040 looks correct.  Too bad the TT question is worded that way!
