Hi All,
This thread concerns a strange process in observing logs. Hope I used the right forum to describe the problem.
Last night, I made some observations, and as I do routinely, I wanted, to day, to enter my notes in ST4.
Opening the "New log Defaults" windows, I wanted to precise my observations details: I opened the "observing location" windows, and as expected, ST4 asked me the choice between "ask" and "select from list".
I chose select from list, and ST4 showed me all my observing locations.
Right now, all seemed correct.
But the problem occurred when I wanted to define my instrument. As usual, I clicked on the "instrument" windows, and ST4 showed me the usual choice between "ask" and "select from list". I chose to click on "select from list", the usual window opened, but in it, there was only "naked eye", and nothing more.
None of my numerous instruments.
I verified in "set up / telescopes", all my instruments were perfectly detailled.
I recommenced the process several times, without any improvement.
As I do routinely a back up of logs, lists, and notes after each session, I restore ST4 from my last back up. The problem was exactly the same.
I would like to know if I did a mistake, or if it is a bug of the ST4 visual 1.11.15.
Many thanks for your help
