Planet Orbits don't appear when char 'O' is pressed

[Ross]

When you press "O" on the keyboard, the planet orbits don't appear. I have the italian version. Is this a bug only in this version?

[Bogdan Marinov (daggerstab)]

Confirmed. It's on my development version on Ubuntu, too, so it has nothing to do with language.

Planet orbits appear when the option is selected in the Sky & Viewing options window, but not when the key is pressed.

I tried to compile the last snv (r6267). There is another bug, related to the one I have reported.

When you press "O" button, planet orbits appear. Ok, it works! Then, I make a search (F3) for everything, i.e. the moon. From now on, "O" button stops working... It seems that a patch to the patch is needed...

Could you please verify?

Sounds like a focus issue. After doing the search click on a star and
then press O again. See if it makes a difference.

It seems that orbits are toggled for the last selected (solar system) object. For some reason an orbit is not displayed for the Moon.

To reproduce:
* Start Stellarium, toggle orbits on and off - everything seems OK.
* Select an object and toggle orbits:
** If the object is a planet, only its orbit will be displayed.
** If the object is the Moon, no orbit will be displayed.
* Deselect the object with a right click and toggle orbits: only the orbit of the last selected object will be displayed. If it had been the Moon, no orbit will be displayed.
* Select the Sun to display all orbits again.
