Mission planner is confused between metric and english feet/meters when creating auto wp (way points)

[BretC]

Today I confirmed that there is a bug in the auto WP (Waypoint) feature. In the MP 1.2.35 when using the AUTP WP feature for creating grids or lawnmower patterns. I have the MP set up to read in feet and the Default Alt set to 500, HOWEVER when the auto waypoints are created their altitude is displayed as 152. I assumed that there was a problem with the displayed altitude, indicating 152 meters when in reality it was 500 feet. WRONG! It is actually 152 FEET!

was this uing grid v2?

[BretC]

No I was using the Grid (top one just under Create Wp Circle). Although I have not used V2 much, I think the same thing happend there too.
