Az param ignored in Best right now's filter

895TXkRk

It seems the Azimuth parameter is ignored when reducing relevant targets in the Best right now suggestions, while the Alt. parameter seems to fork fine. Tried even with a small 1hr timeframe. Would be quite handy if both worked due to my window facing SE, or am I doing something wrong? Latest Seestar app version 2.6.4.
Thanks, Ed.

Thanks for your message. Currently, the “Tonight’s Best” feature only filters targets based on Altitude. The Azimuth parameter is not yet considered, which is why you’re seeing the behavior you described.
We appreciate your feedback and will keep it in mind for future improvements.

If Az is not considered why is it there in filter parameters??

Support@Seestar

Lilo The Azimuth parameter is provided as a filter option so that users can decide the desired target direction themselves. The system does not automatically enforce or interfere with this selection.

Above you wrote that azimuth parameter doesn't work in filter. Is it correct?

"The Azimuth parameter is provided as a filter option so that users can decide the desired target direction themselves"

Could you please clarify that? Does it work or doesn't?

I ran into the same issue. The Azimuth filter appears in the options, but it doesn’t seem to affect the target list in “Tonight’s Best.” It would be great if the app could actually apply both Alt and Az filters together in future updates.
