Mars disappears when zoomed in, sometimes

[José Francisco]

Well, I was testing Stellarium 0.11.4's telescope feature when I choosed Mars. I used the telescope, but he disappeared! When I returned to normal view, I started zooming him and noticed he disappears sometimes. Something wrong with the new version or installation problems?

Please show log.txt

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

This error/bug/whatever doesn't generated log.txt.

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

Stellarium in any case generated log.txt file.

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

But where's located 'log.txt'?

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

For Windows this path like it: C:\Users\<USER LOGIN>\AppData\Roaming\Stellarium\

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

'log.txt' file.

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

Thanks. Just for experiment: can you try run Stellarium via "Stellarium (No OpenGL2)" shortcut and check Mars?

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

Wait... I checked with Stellarium with/without OpenGL2 and now Mars finally appears! We can say he only disappears in some days?

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

Oh, and one more detail: he disappeared when his FOV is 1.09°-0.755°.

I can't reproduce this issue. Can you give test case for reproduce issue?

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

How to give text case? (I'm new here ;p)

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

Well, can you describe (on the steps) how to get this issue? I'm tried reproduce it on Windows 7 x64 and... not success.

[Bogdan Marinov (daggerstab)]

"Test case": describe the steps or conditions necessary to reproduce the bug.

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

1. Deactivate Ground and Atmosphere
2. Search and center Mars
3. Start zooming him
4. He should disappear sometimes

[Alexander Wolf (alexwolf)]

Yes, Mars was disappear when it began switch to using texture.

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

So, what to do now?

[Ferdinand Majerech (kiithsacmp)]

I can't reproduce this on AMD Catalyst/Linux (both GL1 and GL2).

I think I've ran into this or similar bug in the past and fixed it, but I'm not sure.

Can anyone confirm this?

[José Francisco (jos-francisco-nascimento-deactivatedaccount)]

Well, Ferdinand, looks like the textures are working properly now, my planets don't disappears anymore, now my telescope feature stopped working b-(

[Ferdinand Majerech (kiithsacmp)]

You should probably file that as a separate bug (and specify how to reproduce, etc.)
I can't test the telescope control plugin except for a virtual telescope, which seems to work in trunk.
