"NEW GRID" tied to 6-digit locators

[LX2KD]

I recently upgraded from Log4OM version 1.39.0.0 to version 2.4.0.0, running under Windows 10. Generally, I like the new version, especially as it now supports my IC-7610 properly.

I collect grid squares. Well ... it takes all sorts to make a world. To be precise, 4-digit grid squares. I think it is great that you can choose whether the statistics view can group by 4-digit or 6-digit squares ... I choose 4-digit squares. But I am disappointed that the "NEW GRID" light on the main window seems depend on 6-digit squares only, regardless of the 4-digit/6-digit setting. In version 1, it depended on the 4-digit locator, so I could instantly see whether I had already collected that 4-digit square. Now, it lights up for almost every new QSO.

Also ... a minor point ... is the grid square case sensitive? Is the statistic for JN39bo considered to be different to that for JN39BO ?

I was also disappointed to see that the grid square map feature has been removed. It was a great visual way to see how much of each country I had covered.

I have moved this post to feature suggestions to remind us to look at this when time and Covid19 permits

It has not been removed we just have not had time to add this feature, Its difficult to add everything at the initial launch of software
