Description William Kendrick 2005-05-05 09:45:15 UTC 
Version:           1.1 (using KDE 3.4.0, Debian Package 4:3.4.0-0pre4 (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-12)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-2-686

Traditional applications such as Word Processors include a list of recently-opened and -saved documents in the File menu (or a "Recent" submenu within File).  It would be nice of KStars kept track of recently-found objects (via "Pointing->Find Object..."), so you can get back to them much more quickly.  Storing them within the "Pointing" menu, below the other menu items, seems sensible.  A "Pointing->Recent Objects->" submenu would seem suitable, too! :^)  Thanks!

What about adding the objects to the observing list tool instead?  It offers 
more functionality and easier access than a submenu would.

Observing menu resolves this.
