V18.32 2 June 2016
SD's DXpedition Logger Option:
The logging screen was corrupt when reloading
logs, although it could be fixed by the CLEAR
command. Fixed, thanks PA0JNH.
On reloading logs, the DXCC analysis in the
Score window was correct but country checking
was reset. Fixed.
Super Check Partial (SCP):
MASTER.DTA is again included with SD's installation
files. Up-to-date copies are freely available from
supercheckpartial.com.
Some events benefit from a custom SCP file, for
example the CWops mini-tests each Wednesday. This
is controlled by the template SCP_FILE parameter.
If the custom DTA file is not found, SD looks for
MASTER.DTA and loads it. If MASTER.DTA is not found,
SD tells you and continues with SCP disabled.

SD in Windows 10.
Here are the recommended "Properties" settings
for SD in Windows 10. These settings minimise or
eliminate display errors when moving or re-sizing
SD's window.
While it is possible to access "Properties" when
SD is running, the recommended option is to do
this from SD's desktop startup icon - right-click
on the icon and select Properties (the last item
on the list).
The only tabs of interest are Options, Layout
and Font - in that sequence.
You need to do this once only - for both SD and
SDCHECK.
OPTIONS Tab:
IMPORTANT! Follow this sequence -
Use legacy console - Yes (selected)
Cursor Size - May be ignored
Command History - May be ignored
Edit options
Quick Edit - No (unselected)
Insert Mode - NO (unselected)
Text Selection - all unselected
LAYOUT Tab:
Screen Buffer Size
Width - 82
Height - 27
Window Size
Width - 82

Window Position

For a non-widescreen monitor, select Consolas

Select the largest font size that fits SD's window
to your screen, or smaller if preferred.
