"SET COMMENT" doesn't work. It doesn't append any comment to charts, except for "SFC STATION PLOTS" (and maybe others as well), but not on analysis charts.

Retrieving upper data from COD or Albany prevents DAWS from showing progress bar and progress size is undetected.
Labels captions are overlapping

How do I change font and size of isopleths?

Text is always negative and always too big for my taste.

And closing maps generates this error.

Charts are not titled as earlier version did. E.g. "12/12/03 17.52 TEMP 850hPa......."

Plotting temperature and height fields causes figures to boldly overlap (I can't figure where the font size selection has gone)

Don't understand the difference between Blank Map and Erase Map.
What I see is that Blank Map simply does nothing while Erase Map erases last plot.
