[Bug - Needs Path Of Reproduction] SkySafari 6 Plus | Field of View "Automagically" Resets Particular Eyepiece

My Telescope Equipment list includes a Tele Vue-85 (FL = 600mm) telescope and a Tele Vue Delos 4.5 eyepiece.  When I try to add a Telescope Scope Display (Field of View), I can select the 85 and the 4.5, but when I click "OK" the added FOV shows "Tele Vue-85, 24mm Plossl".  (Such an eyepiece does occur in my equipment list with no manufacturer specified.)  The same thing happens when I try to make a FOV for a different telescope and the 4.5 -- I get a new entry "C8-SCT, 24mm Plossl".

Any suggestions?

    FYI I deleted and then enter the eyepiece list and can now use the 4.5.  FWIW I suspect a bug  list length.  In the reported case, the 4.5 was last (most recently added) in the list.

    Brian,

    Can you now add a FOV indicator using the current last eyepiece in the list?  If you reorder the eyepieces in the list, is it always the last one that fails to add correctly?

    Hi Bill,

    I'm able to create FOVs using the last (and 2nd and 3rd last) eyepiece.  I haven't been able to reproduce the failure.  Sorry.

    OK, I'm not sure what was going on either.  If it happens again, let me know.
