Add additional names to observing list

Open ckuethe opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I can't always remember what an object is named from its catalog number, or what its number is based on the name. Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to add additional names to the observing list.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an additional column for names if the user wants to see them.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Tried moving the column dividers, right clicking all around the observing list to see if this was already enabled.

Additional context

@alex-w Ok :)

Probably this is user notes to the OL or just 2 columns - "designation" + "common name"

Wonderful!

@alex-w @ckuethe I added the object name too in the creation dialog. It's better and clearer.
