Description
Describe the bug
When downloading a new weather file, I expect SAM to automatically select it in the list of downloaded weather files. In 2026.7.3, the behavior appears to be:
- The weather file appears in the list
- The actual selected weather file is next to it in the list
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open a PV case in 2026.7.3
- Download a new weather file
- See that the lat/long is not from the selected weather file
Expected behavior
Expect download behavior to match prior versions.
Opening a new case or manually selecting the file is an effective workaround, but this could cause a lot of confusion for users.
