Bug ID: 457615
Summary: StellarSolver Options - Overlay issue
Product: kstars
Version: 3.5.9
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: mutla...@ikarustech.com
Reporter: frank.stef...@web.de
Target Milestone: ---
**SUMMARY**
In the menu 'StellarSolver Options' > 'Alignment Options' toggling the
'Overlay' checkbox has no effect unless KStars full shutdown. Only after KStars
restart the overlay image becomes in/visible as selected by the checkbox.
**STEPS TO REPRODUCE**
1. Start plate solving (Simulator is sufficient)
2. When an overlay image is visible on the KStars star map (default),
deactivate the 'Overlay' option in 'StellarSolver Options' > 'Alignment
Options' > 'Overlay' checkbox. The overlay image still remains visible.
3. Close KStars completely and restart it. The 'Overlay' is now(!) turned off
during plate solving and afterwards.
4. Activate the 'Overlay' check box again > immediately(!) the 'Overlay' image
appears on the KStars star map.
5. BUG: Disabling this option now(!) has no(!) effect -the 'Overlay' image
remains visible.
6. Repeat from step '2.' to reproduce everything as described.
**OBSERVED RESULT**
After switching off (deactivate) the 'Overlay' image, KStars has to be shutdown
completely and then to be restarted (losing the whole work in progress, of
course). The 'Overlay' image becomes unvisible only after 'rebooting' KStars.
Even more strange: When KStars was restarted this way (with 'Overlay' being
disabled before), the Overlay can be instantly activated again with a single
click on its checkbox. The 'Overlay' is now visible but cannot be switched
invisible again without a full KStars restart.
**EXPECTED RESULT**
Switching 'Overlay' image on/off should be instantly effective, at least after
pressing [OK] in the options dialog.
