Summary | 0001703: Comets do not always appear on sky charts | ||||
Description | Sometimes comets are not shown on the sky charts. I have the box "Show comets on the chart" checked and I switched from "Proportional to the tail length" to "Display as a symbol" and noticed that, for example C/2017 E4 (Lovejoy) did not appear on the sky charts, even if I changed to "Show comets 14 magnitudes fainter than the stars." box. | ||||

I cannot reproduce the problem. Maybe something get wrong with your comet database. Can you try the following: - open Setup / Solar system / Comet / Data maintenance - on the line "Quickly delete all data related to comet" click the Delete button. - go to tab "Load MPC file" - click the Download button. Do this solve the problem? |

I still use the COMET-2017-03-31.DAT that came with the latest beta. I can not provide the steps to reproduce it, as the problem happens sometimes and not always. I will update the MPC file and report back if it happens again. I just noticed another issue related to comets. Some labels of comets disappear when rotating the sky charts. For example C/2017 E4 (Lovejoy), C/2015 ER61 (PANSTARRS), 81P/Wild etc. See images. |
