This has happened twice now; can you guys give us a bit more margin of error with our clicking?

Do you remember if it was a lensed quasar or a lensed galaxy?

One of each. A quad quasar, and a wide separation lensed galaxy.

Tom, this should have been fixed by now. Did you see this recently again?

I haven't seen it since I flagged this yesterday

It would be great if any problematic images are collected in Talk. If we can see the image and its ID, then it helps us locate the source of the exact problem. Add them to your collection next time you come across this problem.

Just happened to me with http://talk.spacewarps.org/#/subjects/ASW0000j13 . I marked the quasar reflections in high zoom, perhaps that caused the problem?
Edit: And again with http://talk.spacewarps.org/#/subjects/ASW000047k

PS. The markup in post editor doesn't seem to work for URLs.

In fact it seems that marks on simulated lenses stopped being recognized at all.

We'd like you to mark the lensed images. For more info, please check FAQ for what to mark when you see a lens.

I've got the same with lens image few minutes ago. Is it possible to include an image to posts ? Like attach a local file ?

I also marked a blue arc on a galaxy and was told I missed it. A few images later, I clicked through an image and was told I missed a lens while the software popup pointed to a nearly empty bit of space.

StereoSpace and tsusul ,
Please click on "Discuss" before moving to the next image when that happens again with you. Also, check the post by shulima in this same thread. Shulima posted a screenshot as well. This helps us extremely on finding the exact reason for this bug. We are working on this. But please send us screenshots with your marks and collect those images in Talk so that we can quickly solve this problem with your help!!
Thanks.Posted

@shulima
Just now I was told that this may happen when Chrome has been running for a long period of time. But we don't have a confirmed answer for this yet. Did you come across this problem more often recently ? Can you check by restarting Chrome if this happens again with you?
Thanks!Posted

I marked this one in several places on the top right large objects, yet the marker telling me of the simulation came up, pointed to where my markers were placed and implied that I had missed it.

That has happened to me before also, probably a software glitch. But it probably still has the registered location, I would not worry, it probably got it.

I'm guessing your stats on missed lenses will be a bit higher than reality. I've had this happen a few times. I tried a lens, then I tried the middle of the galaxy.
