OpenCPN Startup Palette

[Biggles]

For some reason V5 always boots up in dusk palette mode, even if previously shut down properly whilst in daylight mode. Cycling through the palettes takes place normally using F5 or the toolbar button. Is there an entry that can be placed in the .ini file to force a daylight startup palette?

Windows 10 Home, O 5.0.518 Intel UHD620

Thanks

Don't you have the inland ENC mode enabled? Starting in dusk mode is a requirement there.

Yes Nohal, I did. It was one of the many boxes that I ticked whilst trouble shooting the V5 graphics problem. When I installed .518 it carried the options across. Having now read up the ENC requirements, I now understand it.

Thanks for the tip.

Thank you Rick. The Open Draw bug has gone away once .518 was installed. I have found minor bugs in WatchDog, Celestial and maybe Grib. I will try and post them in the next 24 hours.

Great. Thanks. You may want to register for a github account so you can post "Issues" with to maintaining author of each plugin repository.
