When "Synchronize Time in All Windows" is turned on, clicking on "View From …" in the "Set a different location." pulldown causes the "Time Flow" to be reset to "1 x".  See the screen captures below.  (See also SN8P synchronizing time in windows)

  Hi Ron, 

  I understand what you saying.  But, again, I would ask, why don't you open ALL windows first BEFORE syncing time across all the windows?

  Please consider what I am suggesting, as I believe it works like this.

  Thanks!

  Hi Keiron,

  I just tried this again.  I opened three windows, then sync'ed the time in all windows.  Then I changed the time flow rate to 1 year.  All three windows showed a time flow of 1 year.  In the second window, I used the pulldown for the location to go 51025.1 km from earth.  The time flow rate stayed at 1 year.  In the third window, I used the pulldown to select "View from..".  As soon a the "Viewing Location" window opened, the time flow rate was changed to "1 x".  So it doesn't seem to depend on the number of window opened.

  OK, I'll have another look.  Thanks!
