This page lists significant recent changes to the LTVT program and to the Wiki site. Older messages can be found in the News Archive.

- The development version has been updated to correct a logic error in the March 19th version which in 3D lunar DEM renderings hid the mouse readout of longitude, latitude and height information beyond the nominal geometric limb circle.
- The development version has been updated to correct a longstanding problem with the mouse readout giving incorrect map references when 3D lunar DEM's were being displayed.
- A special executable has been made available for testing by those having trouble with unwanted scrollbars appearing around the LTVT windows.
