This keeps breaking. Need to go back and figure out what broke it this
time. This is supposed to work.

Marble is so beautiful - and causes us so many problems.

Yeah, known bug. On my todo list. I thought we had a trac bug for this but
it appears we don't. Would you mind filing a bug so I don't forget to do
this?

You can resize them and when you quit Subsurface it saves the size and
restores it at the next start.

The double click on the column header is something that I miss. Can you
file an enhancement request for that so we can track this?

Can you say more what you have in mind here?

OK, I'm not sure why you think you can't use ean40 as travel gas. Add
another waypoint for the descent. Change the gas on the first segment to
ean40. Then it should do the right thing.

What am I missing?
