The Show List bug

Hi Keiron, while we are at it, here is another one :

- Select any (short) list of  your Observing Lists and Highlight Objects.

- Forget this list and select a star on the sky chart.

- Now in the list menu found at the bottom of the chart, click on Select Next Object

- SS6 Pro complains and say that this star doesn't belong to the highlighted list

- Click OK and try to do anything with the list menu found at the bottom of the chart !

Here you are !!!

    What do you mean by "Click OK and try to do anything with the list menu found at the bottom of the chart !"?

    It's even not necessary to do all what I described .

    - Select any (short) list of  your Observing Lists containing NO VISIBLE OBJECT and click on Highlight Objects.

    - Now in the list menu found at the bottom of the chart, click on Show List

    Here you are !!! Forced to force quit !

    By "Click OK and try to do anything with the list menu found at the bottom of the chart !", I meant just click on one of the item of the list menu

    I can get to this error message.  But, I can not crash the program or find any other issue after clicking OK.

    What I did is this

    - I create a list TEST

    - I set the time to (NOW - 4 hours) and select a star just above the Western horizon

    - I select this star and add it to the list TEST

    - I set the time to NOW : the star is not visible anymore

    - I select the list TEST and click on one item of the list menu

    Keiron, you are (partly) right and the bug is not very reproducible. Only one time out of three in my hands.

    If you insist you must get it.

    I reported this bug quite a time ago
