For one of the minor updates could the option Build From Route Grid be either turned on by default or made sticky between sessions?
I'm a Radar Contact beta tester and offer support on its forum. Frequently for waypoints extremely close to departure I recommend turning on that option, deleting that waypoint from the grid, and rebuild/export the file for RC to avoid missing the narrow flyby option of those close waypoints when using fast aircraft. Occasionally we also see a plan with autoroute where the on-field VOR or beacon is included but located before the departure end of the runway and is not in the procedure and departure direction and would require a 180 twice in departure. While probably not in the new Navdata based procedures it still might occur.
It is also useful in using RC's options regarding vectoring and waypoint monitoring limits for departure and approach and matching waypoints in close in portions of terminal procedures between RC and FMC waypoints. It will also be of use in RC's next generation.
Unless someone sees a negative aspect to having this option either sticky between sessions and/or on by default (becoming effective after the first build so it does not interfere with generating the initial route grid) it would simplify proofing the route in the map view and making corrections.
Thanks for considering this.
