Issue with exporting .cmap about awips2 HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey I noticed a small quirk when trying to import a .cmap into version 20 from older versions. The RGBA formatting is all backwards which results in an import error. I was able to correct this by just changing the order of the columns in Excel, but wanted to let you guys know. Here's an example.

Instead of R,G,B,A the older version exports as A,B,G,R which when imported into Version 20 will cause an import error.

Hello,

Thank you for notifying us of this. This is a difference between versions of AWIPS and is good to take note of.

Thank you!

Just to add on, as we have also mentioned in our documentation, there is no guarantee for any compatibility between major versions of AWIPS (ie. between 18 and 20, etc). So, while this is good to know about, and we're glad you have a way to make it conform with what v20 expects, this is not a bug, or something we will address. Sorry for the inconvenience.
