The string formulas "left(string, number)" and "right(string, number)" both have the same function description. It is slightly confusing.

    Hello,

    I have corrected the typo.  This fix will be in Global Mapper 18 daily builds dated October 12, 2016, or later. Simply download the appropriate installer and run it to install the latest build.

    Cheers,
    Bob

    Installing the latest daily build (October 13) to correct this small typo, I again noted some odd behaviour I saw when I first installed v18. When I launch v18 directly from the installer, it doesn't seem my office network drives. If I close it and reopen, then there is no problem. Also, the daily build overwrites/forgets my customized display settings (order of menus, customization of menus).
