Hello,



In the manual waypoint entry dialogue, I am unable to enter an alphabetic character for the UTM zone.  The dialogue only allows numeric entry.



The result is that I get a waypoint set for the correct coordinates, but possibly not the correct zone.



I have attached a screen shot showing the problematic dialogue.



Thanks for this wonderful program!  It is the one I have found which best fills the needs for my ballooning activities.  I have not hesitated to recommend Orux Maps to my friends.



Warm regards,



Jim Williams

Hi, Jim;



The letter can be calculated; you must entry the zone number and North/South.
