adding to an observing list

[jjones7777]

Greetings all,

I am attempting to add objects to an observing list.  I am doing the following:

1. Searching and finding the object
2. Under action menu, choosing add to observing list
3.  correctly selecting the group and the observing list
4.  making certain my settings for observation status includes show observed, show not yet observed, show no value.

What am i missing?  Also, sometimes the menu will say that it is included in a particular observing list, but I cannot see it there.


Thanks for the the help!

You may need to check that the object that you have added is visible in the conditions you have (moon, light pollution etc.) Try setting the difficulty column to ignore difficulty and see if the object shows up. Also check how many of the objects in the list are visible (look at the bottom of the plan it will say xxx out of yyy objects visible)

Another thing to try: choose Reset Filters from the observing list menu.That will get all filters, even the ones that may not be obvious.

Also, be sure that you have "Auto Refresh" set on the same menu. And as a last resort, try changing to another date and then back again.
