Hi,  
I have multiple observatories configured, but for one (Namibia/Windhoek) the altitude graph for any target is wrong. It worked up until 2 days ago.

Example:

Thanks!

I just found that I have the same graph for 4 different DSOs opened in independent tabs. I believe it’s temporary. 🙂

Sorry for that, this bug was introduced yesterday. I’ve just fixed it in version 250503.1147. Let me know how it goes!

It’s OK now. Thanks, Sebastian. 🙂

I have a similar issue, which I confirmed still exists as of earlier this week. I have two preset locations–Alexandria Virginia USA and Kitty Hawk North Carolina USA–and the altitude graphs for Kitty Hawk look drastically different even though they are not far apart geographically. The Kitty Hawk graphs appear to reflect the right altitude but the rising/setting times are shifted by about 12-13 hours. I’d be grateful if you could check this out and squash the bug. Thank you very much!

Just checked the database, and one of your locations has a weird combination: a longitude of 75 (not -75) with a New York timezone. Those coordinates are actually from Pakistan, most likely you wanted to enter -75. Please check that and let me know how it goes!

Thank you, Sebastian–that works perfectly! Interestingly, Google did not tell me I needed a negative sign for the Kitty Hawk coordinate, but I did use a negative sign for my Alexandria coordinate. So this all works perfectly now and makes perfect sense. Thank you very much!
