In general, if you have issues with the catalogs themselves or want a catalog added, you can open an issue under invent.kde.org/vboettcher/kstars-catalogs/-/issues

- catalog management system changed

Do you consider that a problem?

Valentin,
Thank you for working on this!
Any idea when the catalogs/images will be fixed and available for download directly from KStars?
Thanks!

Oh... I just manually downloaded a couple of catalogs from protagon.space/catalogs/pages/catalogs.html and imported to KStars - that didn't make any difference.
Let me try the latest nightly...

Thanks!

Just tried the latest nightly build of Windows client - still cannot search/find M45
Some weird things are going on with catalog downloads and the catalog manager - catalogs sometimes install, sometimes disappear..
The new system is still broken : (

I guess, some changes are still propagating.
Sharpless catalog now searches correctly on Sh2 *** short name.

Problem:
Right now I have a completely empty Catalog Manager.
-- download/install NGC IC (Steinicke). Installed. Shows up in the Manager.
-- download/install Open NGC. After this the Manager gets emptied.
it wasn't like this yesterday.

Just installed the latest Windows KStars (July 2, 2021).
If I search for M 45 - the search doesn't show it - it shows IRIDIUM 45 only.
But. If press <enter> it goes to M 45.
No image though...
I installed Abell catalog - it's not showing up in the Manager.
Something is really not right there..
