User Waypoint Notes not displayed

A few years ago now, in the early days of Plan-G and FSX, a chap from the Isle of Man called Gerry Winskill created the UK Farm Strips scenery. While Plan-G displays a rough guide to runway orientation for airports, it doesn't for airstrips. At the time I got around the problem by creating a csv file with the airstrip data - it is still there on the forum - and I used the Notes field to hold the runway information as dummy numbers.

I recently had cause to revisit the farm strips, so I imported my csv file into Plan-G 3.2.1.151, but I found that the notes field was no longer displayed when hovering over the map icon. Right-clicking on the item, and selecting edit User Waypoints, I could see the field Notes, with the comment (Displayed on the map info popup. Max 50 chars.) I doesn't seem to be working now.

Did I miss something?

Hi Frank, I remember Gerry's farm strips, I flew into most of hem back in the day - great fun. I don't know why the notes field isn't displaying in the tooltip. I'll look into it, but I can't promise how quickly cos of my ongoing health issues.
