Bug Description
I am extremely new to Linux and even newer to GCstar. My problem may be related to
#493488 collections with custom fields can fail to open in some circumstances
but I cannot find the gcs file to which it refers.
I am attempting to add a new field into A stamp collection in GCstar. Using the "Change Collection Fields" I specify a new field but it does not present me with a list of the existing groups, and if I specify a new one a field label appears in the new group but no provision for data. If I attempt to modify it and, possibly try adding another field, the screen clears as though the database has been closed. The only thing I am able to do is re-start GCstar and start again as it appears that all data is lost.
(Running Gstar 1.7.1 under Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 64-bit
Adding a user defined field to a model's group is not supported.
