Working with version 2.0b5 and Double stars, I am seeing "double".

I start up a new session, select Search Catalogs, I choose the AL
Double star one.  I then hit the "ok" button (selecting all
constellations).  I then add all the objects found to the plan.  Once
they are in the plan I sort it to the way I want it.

I go to Beta Cygni (Alberio).  When I go to Field of View, things get
a bit fuzzy.  There are now 4 stars in the field.  Alberio and ALDS85
AND another copy of Alberio and ALDS85.

This happens on every double star I tried it on in the AL Double star catalog.

I also tested this out on the Neglected Doubles I catalog, same result.

Do I have more then one catalog selected??
