## What's fixed

- **The reason a grant is closed to you.** A grant's Landing Page said `This round is not available
  to your account` when the grant was not open to your applicant type, so you could not tell why.
  It now says the grant is not open to your applicant type, as the grant's card on your `Dashboard`
  already did. See [Applying for a grant](/applicant/applying-for-a-grant).
- **File questions on the registration form.** A question that asks for a file on the registration
  form showed a picker you could not use. You can now upload the file while you register, and open
  it again from your organisation's registration once it is saved. See
  [Registering](/applicant/registering).
- **Three grant columns on a laptop.** On a screen about 1280 pixels wide, the `Grants` section of
  your `Dashboard` showed two columns of grants beside the menu. It now shows three, and four on a
  wider screen; a phone still shows one. See [Your applicant dashboard](/applicant/applicant-home).
