I think you have found a bug.
Just tried it and all appears well in memory, but the nostart values are not being properly applied to the output for some reason?
Hurray, one bug down, ??? to go........

Since as it stands now, if I click on any of the features in terrain tool menu with the mouse, this then selects the terrain tool menu as the active window, and means I have to select the navigator again using the mouse in order to resume scrolling through the province list with the cursor keys. This makes it kind of pointless to use the cursor keys if doing heavy province-by-province map editing.

This is an awesome tool though Ballbarian. First time I've used it, and very impressed. Many thanks for the considerable time and effort you must have put into it.
In the wonderful world of windows, this is a feature called 'focus' and I will try to address it in the next version. I agree that it is reducing the usefulness of the navigator.
Pretty much knew it was a Windows thing, since it is the cause of all evil. I mean cause of all problems. I mean it is the cause of this one problem in this one program, and is entirely blameless for all other problems that exist in any area of world society.

Hope you can find a way around this Windows 'feature' though if you update the program
