I would like to search for a specific star. In KStars I have installed the star catalog up to magnitude 12.5. When I search for a faint star, e.g. HD 5897 (in Andromeda), then the search dialog will not find it. Though the star is displayed in KStars. And when
I right click the star it shows me its information (name, magnitude, constellation, rise, transit and set times etc.).</div>

Is this a known issue, or is my database somehow corrupted <span id="🙁">🙁</span>.</div>

Currently I manually search for the stars and mark them with a flag. Then when creating a schedule, I can center the flagged object in the center of my screen and let the scheduler get the coordinates of the centered object. But this is quite a work around,
while finding the star directly is much faster.</div>
