[SOLVED] PA, when auto and west selected, 2nd rotation is east

Hi.

In the Polar Alignment Assistant (beta), if "auto" and "west" are selected, 2nd rotation is east insted.

To reproduce:
1.- Start ekos. Telescope and CCD simulators are ok (plus GSC). Go to PA Assistant.
2.- Click "Start" then "Capture".
3.- Select "West", check "Auto Mode" and click "Rotate".
4.- The mount rotates west. A capture is made and solved.
5.- The UI now shows "east" selected instead of "west". The rotation is made east instead.
6.- The process completes but the result is wrong.

Maybe the radio button state in the UI is not saved between rotations.

Edit: I'm compiling from git. Maybe a couple of days old.

Is posting bug here in the forums ok? What's the preferred method? Bugtracker or something?

Many thanks!

I've done a git pull and a clean compile just to be sure. The bug it's still there.

However, to trigger it, it seems that you have to first complete the process to the east, and only then the 2nd rotations to the west will fail on successive attempts.

This is an _old_ bug, are you sure you're running latest stuff? what version does it show in Help? I just tried the same procedure and no issues.

EDIT: Ok let me check that then.
