There is a menu that appears on the sky. When I activate the clock, the step-back icon is obscured by the menu. So I can only move the clock forward in steps, but not backwards. This is annoying! How do I move the menu or remove it entirely? I never use it. Thank you Malcolm

  Crazy, the same here: after activating Telescope control once, the problem is away:

  After using Scope with an Observing list that displays correctly just touch the Time control to see if it now displays correctly too.

  Excellent troubleshooting, finding a workaround, and critical hint to help developers understand what the issue is!

  Is there any progress or ETA for a fix? This bug is very annoying and the problem still exists in SS7 pro 7.2.0 (1096)

  The bug is still existing in SkySafari Pro 8.0.3. When it will be fixed?! The bug report is nearly 4 years (!) old!

  SkySafari 8.0.3, ipad OS 26, 10" ipad

  WORKAROUND: "after activating Telescope control once, the problem is away."

  Yes, thanks, I know this workaround. But it should be fixed. I have purchased the new version of SkySafari and this really old bug is still not fixed…

  Absolutely absurd that this has not been fixed yet.
