    Hi Been away for 7 months so just updated to AGL24_3 and getting the following error when linking to export file from QT.
    FYI I have changed in QT export from UTC to local and tried both D/M and M/D with according template in AGL.

    Also attached is csv file.

    Marion Island to Fernando de Noronha

    We’d been chasing northern breezes,
    Counting stars and reading signs,
    But the northwest fleet was clever—
    Always one step down the line.
    Then along came something different,
    A whisper on the sea—
    A little tool called QT,
    And it set our sailors free.

    Hey, hey, hey—hello, QT,
    Sailing smarter, sailing fast and clean.
    Oh, oh, oh—thank you, QT,
    You put the southwest sailors in the lead.

    No more guessing at the weather,
    No more drifting off the course,
    QT showed us every current,
    Turned the tide with quiet force.
    Now the northwest fleet is wondering
    How we’re always out of sight—
    It’s the magic of the moment,
    And the data makes it right.

    Hey, hey, hey—hello, QT,
    Sailing smarter, sailing fast and clean.
    Oh, oh, oh—thank you, QT,
    You put the southwest sailors in the lead.

    Me boat was renamed by a scurvy, mutinous crew to

    "Polaris-Plunderer"

    Arrr, the Polaris Plunderer be a legendary pirate ship, known far 'n wide fer its daring exploits 'n fearsome reputation on the high seas. Named after the North Star, Polaris, which be guidin' sailors fer centuries, this here ship be navigatin' with uncanny precision, even in the darkest o' nights. The crew o' the Polaris Plunderer be known fer their unmatched navigational skills 'n their ability to appear 'n disappear like a phantom, strikin' fear into the hearts o' their enemies. Tales o' their treasure hunts 'n battles be whispered in taverns across the world, makin' the Polaris Plunderer a name that evokes both awe 'n terror.

    Arrr, the name Polaris-Plunderer be duly granted, and a fearsome title it be! Renamed by mutiny and carved into legend, yer ship follows the North Star like a curse with a compass. Slippin’ through the dark like a ghost with gold in her sights, ye and yer crew be a tale in the makin’. Let the seas tremble—Polaris-Plunderer sails again!

    Hi Kipper,

    Getting strange window behaviour; specially dor the DC table.

    Works fine for a while and then returning to post DCs the window looks like below image. You can't hit max or change it's size.

    Maybe behaviour by design;
    Previous version loaded NOAA "prt" files int slot 2 and got updated slider but grib did not display.

    Now get the updated slider but also grib displays in full. Still seems to calc route ok in QT...although lost a few places since update but probably my fault 😁

    Even after his passing, from 600+nm in arrears, he looks assured of a finish in top 40.

    I am sure he could not have asked for a better memorial!
