Hello Bob,
The Scheduler is designed to be used one night at a time. One of the reasons for this, is that you can't track the progress made on your projects until you have taken the images. The progress made tonight informs what will be scheduled tomorrow, and so on. It helps to understand that the purpose of the scheduler, and indeed the whole ST4 system, is to obtain the highest quality images of your targets. That means it doesn't work well if you try to force it to make observations of a target that is not well placed for observation on that night. Instead, use the tools together to find suitable targets for your projects for tonight, or better yet, find suitable targets and create many projects, then let the Scheduler tell you winch ones to work on tonight.
