[Feature Request] Double star double posting in planner observation list

In version 6.8.2.2, creating an observation list limited to double stars lists the exact same double star twice (unless it’s a variable double star for some reason). Very confusing when then “highlight list” is invoked! Pleas only list a double star once in a planner observation list! Thanks!

  I am unable to paste a copy of the screen onto the comment box, and see no attachment option- so how do I do need that?

  If you're on mobile, you might try using the desktop version on your browser or emailing yourself a screen shot and using a desktop. In the full version, there's an icon for attaching an image.

  Hi Keiron- see pix below, an Observation list generated using the observation planner with these settings:

  Object type: Double stars

  Mag: 0-8

  Alt: 20-90

  Az: 20-110

  Separation: .7-.9

  You can see several duplicates in the list:

  HR4399

  HD93457

  HD124759

  Hope that makes sense, and thanks for getting back to me so quickly!

  Mike, 

  These duplicates are double stars, each has its own magnitude - once for each star?

  Thoughts?

  Chris will know too :)
