Hello,

I would like to add a couple of requests for the next version. Improve on the new "back button" on the toolbar. It would be nice to return 'forward' to the previous screen after having gone 'backward, maybe something lilke the Internet browser 'forward and back' buttons.

Along the magnitude choices, I have needed on several occasions a way to bracket the magnitude of the asteroids, say, display between 12 and 15 only. Speaking of asteroids, an option to display only a particular 'number' range, such as 1,000 through 2,500, etc. With the MPCORB.dat file now approaching 200,000 more selective filtering of the asteroids would be most welcome. I know we can use "ALT-J" to insert a filter line in the Guide.dat file, but that is not the most 'user friendly' way. ;)

Also a way to toggle ALL of the objects on/off at one time. As it is now, you have to toggle to 'off' each of the many different object types.

The is a few more than a 'couple of requests' but maybe other users would like to see the same included in the next version.

Hi Bill, I All,

On in other hand, all these new possibilities would be much easier to manage, if the tollbar would include two new icons, and clicking on them, would switch on or off magnitudes of star and/or DSO, independantly of other things.

What is the opinion of folks, but above all, of Bill's one ?
