Trust Capital Gains taxation

My 1041 for 2019 is taxing capital gains at ordinary income rates. (They are not distributed out to the beneficiaries.) Why does it assume ordinary treatment?  And how can I choose capital gains tax rates?

How much is the LTCG income?

What does it say at the bottom of the Sch D? How much is taxed at 0%? 15%?

Short term?

How much other income is there?

The more I know the more I don’t know.

It is Long Term.

There is no other income.

I don't do that many trusts but I do think ordinary income treatment is not correct.

Strongsilence, you marked mine as the solution. Was it 0%, 15%, etc?
