It should work similar to Buhlmann gradient factors, where the planner GFs are set in the planner, and the profile ceiling display GFs are set from the preferences window graph tab. The choice of Buhlmann or VPM-B ceiling for saved dives should also be set in the graph tab. The first issue needs to be fixed as it is a regression, and I imagine isn't too difficult to track down. There's a good chance there are other preferences that aren't remembered, but they don't bug me as much as that one - I almost always use the drop to first depth mode, but it isn't the default. The second isn't a regression and would be a nice-to-have for the next release. I've been looking at in my limited spare time, and think I'm close, but that needn't hold up a release. Cheers, Rick
