+* Handling invalid input parameters
+  - Eric looking for a good way to tell the user about invalid input parameters in a GUI panel after they press OK.
+  - Raising user error shows dialog that raises main window and floating input panel ends up behind main window.
+  - Discussed instead showing QErrorDialog instead of user error to avoid raising main window.
+

+  - Updated from Qt 6.7 to 6.8.2 in the nightly build.
+  - Hoping this fixes mac multiple display crashes.
