Again, having the "Remove Worked Country "selected does exactly that irregardless of confirmed or not. It gets removed as it is "worked".
I think an additional filter (Show Worked and Not Confirmed) may be what is need to accomplish what you need. Daniele would have to address that.

Chuck, you are likely correct, I will probably not be able to achieve what I'm after no matter how I change the settings in the current version of the software.
Yet I still think the "WORKED" number of countries has very little meaning, and what counts is really just the "CONFIRMED" status. ARRL has not yet issued a DXCC award to someone for WORKED entities, they do require QSL or LoTW CONFIRMATIONS. That is why I wish the current Log4om cluster filters ignored WORKED entities and looked for CONFIRMED entities instead.
A WORKED DXCC entity may not necessarily result in a CONFIRMATION if we are not in the DX expedition's log because we though we made the QSO, but we never did, or a call-sign similar to ours is in their log instead, or we might have made a QSO with a pirate, or we simply never get a QSL because the operator does not send QSLs. There may be many reasons for why a WORKED contact may not necessarily turn into a CONFIRMATION. That is why I don't take the WORKED countries too seriously.
I wonder if also other Log4om users would be for a modification to this feature, or if it should stay as it is implemented now.

Martin,
I agree 100% with you and I'll ask the team and if they feel it worth doing (even the slightest) and if so, I'll put it on our Mantis To-Do-LIst. Can't promise when it would be done as the boss, Daniele, sets that.

Re: Cluster Filters: Remove CFM'd Country, Keep Un-CFM'd Ban
Daniele, to put it another way, I'm looking for a feature that would result in the following meaning of colors:
RED: Unconfirmed
GREEN: Confirmed in another band
WHITE: Confirmed in same band
The current color scheme (screenshot attached below) doesn't achieve my goal:
RED: Unconfirmed
GREEN: Confirmed in another band
WHITE: Confirmed in same band
The current color scheme (screenshot attached below) doesn't achieve my goal:

Ok. Changes has been made on the code and the bug related to "remove worked country" has been fixed, taking into account the way the user choosed to display the cluster (by worked, qsl, eqsl, lotw and QSL+LOTW JUST ADDED) instead of the "fixed worked country" flag.

"I have to tell you, this new cluster mode thing is the greatest thing in ham radio other then having sex on top of the amp in the shack. I filled 4 holes in a matter of minutes just clicking on various spots where I had holes in the award matrix.
Whoa!"
