Future versions - table layout

after spending hours editing my table layouts (in worked before detached and worked before F10 which are both different. as well as recent qso's) with changes to my column headings, column widths and column positions, along comes the upgrade to 2.13.0.0 and it changed all of them.. It added more and altered everything that I had set up. :-( :-(

For future verions of this great software, can we please not do this. Can we please maintain the current setup that a user has taken time to do and also make future added columns off (unticked) by default.

regards
John

John,
The problem is that if between releases we change the form to update even just one field or add a field then when a new release is loaded for the first time it has to load the default field set.

BTW - with this upgrade we have Row ID column visible which is of no use and probably for internal use. It cannot be made to not appear (no checkbox)
