How Come Displayed Celestial Coordinates Results Are Still Those For The Current Date, Not The Adjusted Date? (Answer: User Found Solution)

When I set the time/date to a different date in order to get celestial coordinates, the displayed results are still those for the current date, not the adjusted date - even though the displayed sky image shifted appropriately.

Is there a way to display the 'celestial coordinates' for different times of my choosing when I click on the 'info' display for an object (e.g. Jupiter)?

    Hi Keiron,

    Thank you!  While I was getting ready to submit, I did some double-checks to make sure I was producing something replicable, and I found everything working well.  Further, starting with an hour angle & declination, I could work back to right ascensionl (JNow), then to eclipic longitude and latitude J2000 that matched to within a few secs of arc, so I am content with things, and trust the results.
