Thanks for the post.

When assigning a magnitude limit filter whilst in MODE TOUR or MODE IDENTIFY,
it should be kept in mind that not all objects have assigned magnitudes.

For example, In some cases the association of a magnitude with a particular
object may make no particular sense, for example on very extended or
otherwise unusual objects with low surface brightness, so no magnitude
has been applied. On some NGC and IC objects, there may be no assigned
magnitude because no observed magnitude could be found. In some instances
we had to go and observe the objects ourselves and assign a magnitude.

In order to ensure every object you would like to observe in MODE IDENTIFY
or MODE TOUR appears, use the special magnitude selection of ANY.
