Known Bugs

- Adding a guide star from target adds in J2000 regardless of equinox of target... It is best to use the position editor to do a coordinate transformation before choosing a guide star

- It allows you to put an Iterator into a sequence for an instrument which does not match the one higher in the observation.

- Instrument aperture calculation for rotated slits in CGS4, is not yet accurate enough to avoid the need to search for the beam at the telescope.

- The "undo" button does not always work properly on some items (e.g. coadds in inst. component, title on observation) -It sometimes seems to undo back to a blank instead of the previous value.

A "Check Button" for user errors such as matching dark and object exposure times is still to be implemented.

- location of cgs4 slit wrt the base position in drawing on the position editor needs to reflect the standard peakup row.

- CGS4 slit angles change to a peculiar value when a user enters an illegal value. Allowed values are fine.

Feedback of the CGS4 wavelength coverage is wrong, at least sometimes (it appears to get it more-or-less correct on some occasions, but wildly wrong on others - try entering 1.15 as the central wavelength). It also gets the resolution wrong as well on occasion. "OT appears to give a wavelength range of almost 1.5 microns by the time you get to 4.6 microns. the coverage appears to increase monotonically from a correct value when set at around 2.0 microns."

- If attempt to save to place where can't (other users dir?) then get "file not found" - misleading error mess. you can however explicitely use "save as" to choose a directory - the default for save is to try and save back to the directory the file came from.

- desirable: an undo botton on the science program window.

- Occasional "Disappearing" menus (click & they come/go), click again and they're ok.

Random swapping around of guide and base coordinates can lead to the non implemented "user|" tag appearing.

- exception handling on sending things to database...I think better error descriptions in the ErrorBoxes could be provided.

- Cut & paste problems - sometimes it just stops working

- Closing & save checking on open windows - there have been some reports of problems. "if you create a program and then try to close it without saving, you can't - or at least I can't. i.e. file...close...don't save doesn't close - everything just stays put. Possibly related instances where "close" lets you out without prompting for a save..... All are (very) intermittent.

- Rename or change the "pencil" icon in the component editors (*not* the "needs save" pencil the other one). Change "pencil" icon on save button to a floppy disk...

- If you hit "new note" while an observation is highlighted, the note does not go into the programme below the observation - it becomes part of the observation. this is a pain if you're trying to use notes to annotate an entire nights programme. if you create the note you can later drag it to the desired place - OT windows for "look and feel" : Tabs on instrument components not right - order is partly a function of whether item is a drop down menu, or box you type a value in. Other components (coords, iterators etc) all have reasonable behaviour.

- various font problems on windows

- in the program or library windows - the text widget at the bottom that's supposed to remind you what the button you're pointing at actually does - the text pops up for a split second as the pointer moves onto the button, then dissapears again. On closer investigation, the text is present, only when the pointer is over the putton boundary (ie the 1-pixel(?) wide shaded border that the buttons have)...

If you choose exit on the help browser, it exits the OT as well and does not prompt for a save of unsaved program changes - beware !

Specific to running on JDK1.2 ==============================

- dialogue box locations & sizes - default sizing of GUIS not working properly (OT and OM). - more preferences to save - fonts!! - JDK1.2 slowness & disastrous at JAC on Solaris. - Resizing SP tree on Solaris, when scroll backwards. Requires refresh.
