[APBeta] APv2b29 behavior

Paul,

I have been busy using APv1.6.1 to drive my scope for lots of imaging  
(worked flawlessly) and am just getting back to working with APv2. I  
downloaded b29 and it generally seems to work well (MacOS 10.5.6). The  
DSS images open very quickly. However, I have noticed two strange  
behaviors. First, I am using a plan converted from v1.6.1 and when I  
open it, it has every object having a DSS image. The plan consists of  
a number of DSO's, which do have DSS images downloaded, and stars for  
each created by the script, Guide Star, which should not have DSS  
images. Interestingly, the DSS images associated with the guide stars  
are the images for the corresponding DSO's. I know you have been  
working on the DSS image stuff. Have I missed something about that?

Second, when I shut down APv2b29, it spends a very long time "Saving  
settings". I just timed it and it took almost a minute to quit.

Thanks,
Bruce Pipes
