Dear Jasem,

Thank you for the good news. It is great that kstars/ekos is constantly 
being developed and that new functions are added with each release.

Unfortunately, the basic planetarium UI and some of its functions are 
still suffering from bugs which don't seem to get much attention. As I 
didn't find any reference to it in the changelog of 3.7.4, I took the 
liberty of posting a short unlisted video demonstrating one of such 
bugs, that has been affecting my installation: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XImXZ6OXNCs .

As a professional astronomer that regularly uses kstars for work, I 
would be grateful if you or the other developers could have a look also 
in these less groundbreaking "features" of the program.

Thank you in advance,
Best regards,

Giovanni Ceribella
