So even slewing away, syncing, then slewing back fails to center an star very close to the location. Should have been 70 or so arcsec from center at worst. I even tried to sync within TSX to make sure it was really syncing, and kstars still put it 4000 arcsec off and then couldn't slew to center.
Hopefully this is useful. Your current beta works fine when set to differential which is my default mode anyway (and I suspect anyone with a paramount and probably 10 micron). Certainly far better than 3.6.8. Any way to get that published so others can work with it? I can't explain the behavior when differential slew is off. I never tried it on the older versions that way so I can't comment if that is expected. For Paramounts at least this is workable. I've had a few more instances of the problem happening in scheduler, so that might be something else to look at. As in, does it need some modifications to handle the same logic as the alignment tab? Ill try to record what I was doing when it happens again.
Thanks again for all your work on this! I still also think that it should not be storing any model when in differential mode. Unless it's only in the display and not affecting future solves/slews. It should just never store it and present it in any way. The way the model page works at the moment it "appears" to be storing all the solves since the start of the session (and yes I have been clearing it). If they are affecting the slews/solves then they are competing with the TSX model. But that is probably a different thread. I don't know where each contributors roles are.
