I have version 3.2 loaded into a Tarot Pro hex extended for 15" props. I am doing missions and have run into 3 problems. When I create a mission with Takeoff as the first command and follow it with several waypoints, some with time delay and some without, the hex will not proceed to the next command. I arm in stabilize with the throttle down then switch to auto and advance the throttle. It takes off perfectly then just sits still at the takeoff altitude I listed in the command. If I remove the takeoff command and start with a waypoint, it will execute perfectly, going to all waypoints. Similarly, if I have a loiter_turns in the mission, the hex executes the turns ok but skips the following waypoints in the mission and seems to skip to the last command which is "return to Launch". The other problem is with the mission planning page. The rows and columns for the mission show up totally collapsed when I begin. It is only when I enter commands that the columns open up but only enough to show the width as never more than the number of characters that I have entered in the numerical cells. So for example, I cannot see the word delay in the header if I only have 1 second typed in but if I type 1.000 then I can see 5 letters of the word delay. Is this a bug in mission planner or do I need to make a setting change for how the display works?
I am very happy to be this far along and appreciate the help I have received both on this forum and by the excellent support staff in Mexico.

Post your mission txt file here, also put up some screenshots of the column problem. (P.S. I've moved this discussion into the APM Mission Planner category)
Here are 2 files with takeoff on one and loiter on the second and the first of three screen captures.
I will send 2 more screen captures in the next post.

Have a look here regarding the columns: https://github.com/diydrones/MissionPlanner/issues/752 as well as: https://github.com/diydrones/MissionPlanner/issues/712 hopefully it'll be fixed in the next release. You can add your screenshots to the issue if you want.
Not sure about the mission files although salem2.txt has a blank waypoint (#5) in it which I don't think is good. Salem1.txt looks fine, similar to missions I've done before.
here are the other 2 screen captures
