Selecting an object via "Enter"
Selecting an object via "Enter"
When hitting enter, and typing the name of an asteroid, such as "1988 PA", I can see that Celestia is sorting through objects and does find 1988 PA, but when hitting enter at this point, the object is not really selected, and I can't go there. When selecting the same object in the Solar System Browser however, it is selected (the orbit turns on) and I can go there. Is there a way to get the same results via the first method?

As you're entering in an object name, once you see it appear in the list beneath... press the Tab key to change the input focus from the text entry field to the object items list beneath (you'll see the first selection in the list changes color - denotes that object is selected), and then keep Tabbing to the object name desired and then press Enter.
Hope that helps.
