Once a target has a coordinate entered in the GUI, the coordinate can never again be removed.

Coordinates (RA, DEC) should be allowed to be empty, and a target with empty coordinates can be created. But, if you enter coordinates, then you can not change your mind and later erase them.

Doing so prints: java.lang.RuntimeException: Expected a string of the form hh:mm:ss.sss, but got: '' in the console window. Although interestingly, there is no such exception if you get the form "wrong", as long as it's a number. I.E., entering "1" or "1.0" or "0:0" all are accepted without error.

I will look at this when I return next week. Sincerely Jennifer

I was just able to edit the target list to replace one RA with a blank, but when I clicked ACCEPT the entire list disappeared.

Not currently reproducible.
