    Nice FMF! I tried it out, I think it will be handy for entering some reminders to check things as the mission progresses. I did note that it appears these do not show up in previews though, so cannot check they are in the correct location/timing sequence. Not a big deal though.

    Thanks Martin Reading

    The perils of creating videos while watching the Murray / Kokkinakis tennis match :)

    BTW - if you are a tennis fan, don't know the result, well worth a watch...but it's a marathon 5:45 long!

    I'll fix where I can.  Vimeo lets me replace the video - Youtube requires you to start again, which is a total pain.  But...I get far more views on YT.

    You are correct.  It doesn't show up in mission previews.  I wonder if there could be a marker or something put there to cover that.  Interesting thought.  Jim McAndrew  What do you think?

    Thanks Tony Simek

    Def a useful feature - especially if you are like me and have the memory of a goldfish, or are handing off jobs for other people to complete for you.
