"Use Custom Description" enabled by default when editing - I think not good idea

Hi,
Probably from v16 when using EDIT option "Use Custom Description" is enabled by default. I think that in most cases users do not want to modify the Features Description. GM is putting in this field Description of last or first feature I think. I very often forgot that this option is enabled and all of my edited features has a new - the same description. Maybe if this option is usefull for big group of users you can put in Configuration/General option what to do by default with edited Features Description.
Best regards
Wojtek

Hello Wojtek,
I added feature request #14766 to our task list so we can evaluate this functionality for inclusion in a future version of Global Mapper.
Cheers,
Bob
