Guest guest Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Namaste Shanumukha, Yes, this is a bug. If city name is blank, Jagannatha Hora is going to the next line and taking the text there as the city name, the line next as country etc. So the fields saved in the file after city name are mis-read. Thus, Julian/Gregorian calendar used can be misread and chart can be wrong. If you never leave the city name blank, you will never see this issue. I will fix it in the next release. Thanks for pointing this out! Thanks, Narasimha ---- " IMS(ZF & T)QA " <imsqazf wrote: > > Om Namah Sivaya > > Dear Sri Narasimha, > > I recently found a small bug / discrepancy in JHora.

Once I changed it to Gregorian, then everything was fine. So, it looks to me that there is a bug in this. Or is it intentional? Since, as explained in the procedure above, I didn't change the Calander field, why should it default to Julian year? The atmospheric pressure field also changed to 0.25 instead of the default 1013.25. > > I think it can be reproduced at your end as well. > > Regards, > Shanmukha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
