Weird, can't find it...even closed ones. .

You did enter this. I've looked at these, opened them to see the details, but didn't 'close' them.

Thanks for the correction. Please use Tracker for items that are bugs or feature requests, as I may not have kept up with what you've found out. Also use the comments section for specific items in tracker. Thanks very much!

Although a few days ago I definitely experienced both above mentioned problems, today these are gone. Don't ask me why ...

I have added your comment to

NAV advises "Although a few days ago I definitely experienced both above mentioned problems, today these are gone. Don't ask me why ..."

We will be posting incidents related to this extemporaneously (as it happens) until we know that this can be closed.

and I am not closing it until we know more. You can post your comments...as they happen.

Using your data for sun and moon in the plugin, I found a slightly different position (while under the computation tab all correction values were identical and the almanac derived data were slightly different; this is strange):
I found:
Lat 35 07.6 N
Lon 020 45.5 W

You found:
Lat 35 08.7 N
Lon 020 43.0 W

You found using DSV:
Lat 35 11.9 N
Lon 020 43.7 W

Moon was very low, which means that corrections for parallax should be applied as accurate as possible. In your Aufgaben temperature and pressure never seem to be mentioned.

I suggest to include the observation time (GMT or UT) under the Computation Tab for saving.

NAV can we close this tracker item?

FS#1440 : Fix reversing order Sight entry

NAV reports that: "This problem is showing again too. It seems to happen after applying a change to an earlier input."
Rgleason Tested earlier and thought it was working, but did not try to change an earlier input, just entered a sight and then closed it and everything seemed to correspond during that session.

I have this version installed since the 10th of August. Still shows the same problem.

rgleason · 02-09-2014, 08:59

NAV do you know if we can close any of the BUG items?
OpenCPN::Tracker pi - Celestial Navigation: Tasklist

NAV · 02-09-2014, 10:48

If the plugin version of august 9th is the latest, none of the bugs listed can be deleted. I still see the same problems.

However, I get the impression that you think that something has changed. If so, please explain. Perhaps I missed something.
